“The state of Wisconsin has begun looking for a practical way to test Mexican candy for lead, although it remains to be seen what enforcement actions, if any, might follow.

Last month, the state of California announced that the three largest Mexican candy manufacturers had agreed to a plan to get lead out of their candies that had been causing lead poisoning among children. California Attorney General Bill Lockyer announced the settlement.”
