A pedophiles dream

Angry in the Great White North reports that Chinese-made toys have been recalled in Australia, and are being pulled from shelves in Canada, because they contain a date rape drug.

Australian officials said instead of using the safe chemical 1,5-pentanediol, the potentially dangerous chemical 1,4-butanediol was introduced in the manufacturing process. When ingested, 1,4-butanediol can metabolize into what is known as the date rape drug.
