Squishy Toys Risk Toxic Hazards
from Leicester News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Squishy dumpling toys are exploding online thanks to TikTok and YouTube unboxings, but Trading Standards is sounding the alarm—some are dangerously toxic, poorly made, or even microwaveable, risking burns, poisoning, or choking. With fakes flooding the market, officials warn parents to avoid toys with strange smells, missing safety labels, or no CE/UKCA marks. Glasgow seized nearly 6,000 counterfeit ones; councils across England are urging caution as these “cute” toys can cause nausea, skin irritation, or worse. Don’t let the hype fool you—always buy from trusted sources and check for proper safety certifications. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
