Consumer Advisory: Sherwood Brands Pirate's Gold Milk Chocolate Coins may be Contaminated with Melamine Melamine - Certain products from China - 2008

[John K. Matyi] This is a little late for this kind of Consumer warning but it just came across my desk this morning. We have seen this before with contaminated food products from China such as dog and cat food, and recently, baby formula. My advice is not to allow your children to eat any Halloween candy until you have had a chance to inspect it. As always, 'If in doubt, throw it out.'
