Recalled Toys Featured In Walmart's Holiday Catalog

One of the unintended consequences of so many toy recalls is that holiday catalogs, printed far in advance, are now full of recalled toys.

According to KHON news, Walmart’s catalog contains two such toys, the “date rape” Aquadots and Fisher-Price’s Laugh and Learn kitchen.

Walmart says, “Unfortunately, this book was printed and shipped prior to completion of the additional testing and the recalls of these two products.” They also said they’re putting up signs informing shoppers of the recalls, (in the hopes that they’ll get fewer complaints from people who aren’t aware that the toys had been recalled, we assume.)

Sounds like a lot of fun.
