What Is It?
They are little balls that you add water & enclosed growth powder and they will expand up to the size of a tennis ball!
What Happened?
Unfortunately they look like candy, so Kids were eating them...then they were expanding in their tummies causing all kinds of problems. Especially since they could not be picked up in X-Rays...so Doctors would have to go into stomachs to check to see where this thing expanded.
Aftermath?
They were recalled in 2013.
