Apparently “Do Not Swallow” doesn’t come close to convey the dangers of a new toy being recalled, this time in Australia. The toy, called Bindeez, sound innocent enough: kids can fuse little beads together into different shapes and such by spraying them with water:

But it isn’t all fun and games:

Scientists say the beads contain a chemical that the human body metabolizes into the so-called “date rape” drug gamma hydroxy butyrate. When eaten, the compound — made from common and easily available ingredients — can induce unconsciousness, seizures, drowsiness, coma and death.

This goes way beyond “playing doctor.” So far, the AP reports that at least a 2-year-old boy, a 10-year-old girl and a 19-month-old toddler were receiving medical help after eating the beads.

With all the defective toys coming out of China, we’ve started thinking that this all may be an elaborate attempt at global domination. The only problem is we can’t figure out how this latest toy recall fits into the master plan, and we don’t want to know.
