    There was a story not too long ago on the news about this, I think. Couldn't find it just now, but I think it was kids being poisoned by something like this. I could be wrong about the cause, but was it for nail biting/finger sucking? Not sure but I think I'd stay away from this kind of thing anyway. Do you really know what's in that stuff?

    I think it might have been hand sanitizer, or at least I recall hand sanitizer being bad because of hands in mouths and it being in the media.
