No toy is safe from the NYPIRG hit list. This year the venerable potatoe based play is being seen as a chokeing hazard.. despite having been available for many years.

Somehow I think parents are bright enough to gauge their childs toy chewing habits and purchas appropriate playthings. These are, after all, parents of children and therefore hopefully older than the children themselves.

And with a grand total of 16 child deaths (I’m assuming in the USA… there aren’t any other countries, right?) from toy related injuries their furvor might be a bit misplaced. Imagine what all that money they raise and spend could do for some, possibly any, other cause.
