A place to post product recalls. Recalls can be national or local, even just one store down the street. Nor are they limited to one country, if a product is declared unsafe by the government or the maker, share it here.

Title should reflect what's being recalled, body should say where and/or have a link to the announcement.

I'll save you a click: they're being recalled, of course, because people are eating them.

Imagine how dumb Neanderthals must have been.

Their brain was bigger and took longer to fully mature so it could be that Neanderthals were smarter and would not be stupid enough to eat magnets.

Maybe we were more social or aggressive, wasted less energy or they were just absorbed or killed by our species.
