@The_Duke: Yeah, me too, I was raised on lead products. And look at what winners we turned out to be, it's 60 degrees in Chicago and I'm sitting in front of my computer, waiting for the next Consumerist post so I can comment. I hope my kids grow up just like me! :)

By the way, Wal-Mart NEVER pulls recalled shit off it's shelves. Everyone should know this by now. It's akin to Sears customer service sucking and Best Buy's prices being bogus.
It's the norm.

But the thing is, are they taking the sale of these tainted bibs very seriously?
Freakin Walmart. Will they ever get their act together. They move millions of packages from warehouse to store but try to move a few in the opposite direction and all systems fail. What boneheads.
Is ANYBODY surprised at this headline???
This post made me realize I had no idea what or where the Poconos were.

Now does anyone understand Walmart's failure to pull the Totenkopf shirts as promised showed their inability to pull actual dangerous stuff off the shelf?
It wasn't about the Nazi symbol!

Walmart hates babies.
Walmart doesnt give a flying **** about the customers otherwise they would spend a little more effort to make sure these kinda of things were tested and removed BEFORE THEY EVER EVEN HIT THE SHELVES!

Holy crap. I've been buying a pack of those a month for the last year at least. Niiiice.
But they taste so good when you gnaw on them . . .

One would think though, is there really any need for lead in a freaking bib? I mean really...
I think things are more lead paint prone now than years ago. More products are made in China and far less in the US. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that lead is poisonous, more so with kids and it shouldn't be in things likely to go into their mouths...
Seriously though, who would really think there would be lead in a bib? I was pretty surprised.

The little prince only wears bibs made by the Queenmum herself. He is, after all, the heir apparent, and cannot be bothered with leaden bibs and such bosh.
Seriously, it's almost impossible to get something NOT made in China these days, especially from gives-me-the-Willies-mart or other large discounters. I'd rather spend a little more, or make it myself. The young prince plays with a lot of kitchen utensils and pots and pans, along with carefully (I hope) chosen toys.

What about PET toys????? I challenge anyone to find a cat toy in ANY STORE that isn't made in China. It's sickening...even the ones like \"Fat Cat\" that have the whole Ben & Jerry's Vermont writing all over the package,...the COMPANY is in the US, but the toys are all made in China like every other brand. The pet food thing seems to be brushed under the rug as well... Why are we getting wheat (here we are the \"amber waves of grain\" country),from China?
Remember, \"MADE in the USA\" does not necessarily mean all INGREDIENTS originated from the USA.

Very nice considering the side effects -
\"Even low levels of exposure to lead can result in IQ deficits, learning disabilities, behavioral problems, stunted or slowed growth, and impaired hearing. At increasingly high levels of exposure, a child may suffer kidney damage, become mentally retarded, fall into a coma, and even die from lead poisoning. Lead poisoning has been associated with a significantly increased high-school dropout rate, as well as increases in juvenile delinquency and criminal behavior.\"

Has anyone seen the Nazi shirt in a while? maybe they were using it to keep our attention off the lead covered baby products.
eh, vacationing in the Poconos, so we got a few less rich kids, what's it gonna hurt, Too bad more of these rich A holes didn't buy tainted bibs!!
but the baby is safe from harmful x-rays, right?
@nebraskabill: how incredibly inappropriate. i think you fail to realize if we're SO rich (which we're not) why did we go shopping at a walmart? oh, and thanks for wishing for my daughter to die... good on you
Hahah, TANK, that's right.
Maybe Walmart needs to sell the Bibs to the hospital radiology department.
But to be serious for a sec, it's really horrible that Walmart, of all places, doesn't have their act together on a clearly recalled item with lead in it.
That's serious business. Especially since their inventory system is supposed to be so great.

Giving WalMart the benefit of the doubt, they could be just selling off old stock rather than purposely selling recall products.
And for those wondering, the Poconos in New Jersey across the Hudson River from Manhattan.
That is VERY scary! I can't believe they wouldn't pull them off of the shelf immediately! We had those exact bibs for my daughter and they are sitting somewhere in our basement for future use (hopefully)--I'm going to have to go down there and dig them out now. I'm sick, just sick to know that they contained lead!!!

There has always been lead in kids crap. Why is it all of a sudden an issue these past few months? I toughed it out, they can too...
