Wal-Mart has announced it will no longer sell children's clothing found to be contaminated with a cancer-causing chemical. According to the Beijing News, the stores, located in China, were selling nine different brands of children's clothing that contained a dye that has been identified as a carcinogen and linked to cancer. The public relation spokesperson for Wal-Mart in China declined to state whether or not the same brands of children's clothing had found their way onto U.S. Wal-Mart store shelves. Although I am certain we will soon hear from a Wal-Mart public relation spokesperson here in the U.S. regarding this matter.Note: The contents of this blog are for informational purposes only and should not be construed as medical advice or substitute for professional care.
