Benzene contamination in... basically everything

Had a crappy day? Think your only friend is the dog? Got fired? Someone piss in your Wheaties? Just need to blow off some steam and rant? Here's the place to do it. No judgement, maybe some sympathy, possibly some advice... but definitely a safe place to go off on the world.

Benzene contamination in... basically everything

The headline speaks for itself...

"Carcinogenic chemical benzene found in hundreds of US personal care products

Independent lab found the chemical in more than a quarter of items it tested – sometimes at levels considered ‘life threatening’"

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/202 ... roducts-us

This is what regulatory capture gets us.

Also notice the recalls are voluntary, which in this case probably means they won't happen - because the contamination affects half the products you'll find in the average CVS.
