(SOT) Eden Project product recall
http://www.edenproject.com/product-r...-seed-bracelet
Also seen in today's papers. It just surprises me that nobody at the Eden Project recognised Abrus precatorius seeds (Jequirity, Crab's Eyes, etc). Is the plant grown at EP? The toxic principle (abrin) is several dozen times more toxic than ricin from castor oil seeds. I wonder how the poor devils who make these necklaces by drilling holes in the seeds avoid breathing in the toxic dust. -- Jeff (NB TB's spellchecker didn't recognise "precatorius", but it - very aptly - offered "precarious" as an alternative!) |
