McDonald's Forced to Recall 12 Million Shrek Drinking Glasses

No wonder Shrek is green. McDonald's is being forced to recall 12 million Shrek Forever After-themed drinking glasses because the painted design -- which the AP story hilariously calls "cheap" -- contains the toxic metal cadmium. And -- wouldn't you know it -- cadmium is a known carcinogen that can cause bone softening and severe kidney problems. Good job, everyone! Do you want fries with that? [MSNBC]
