Thank you for posting this! Jackson got the teeth from his soccer coach and I told DH to throw them out because they were probably painted with lead paint. He of course said they were fine and gave them back to Jackson and Tyler. I have a wonderful picture of everyone on Jackson's soccer team with these teeth in their mouths. UGH!!!!

The implication in the article being that accepting trips paid for by industry may have compromised the CPSC's integrity when it comes to regulating the safety of those company's products:
