dude!! i love mexican candy and i eat it all the time, especially when i go to mexico and i never get sick from eating it!!
Unfortunately this is true. Traditional folk remedies, lead pottery and candy are all sources for excess lead. Lead poisoning associated with tamarind candy is the usually culprit. Because the candies are sticky and can adhere to the wrapper, the children might have ingested lead from the wrapper. CDHS has identified lead in several other tamarind candies. In addition, FDA has embargoed food products containing tamarind fruit from entry into the United States.
