Taichung Slime Products Fail Checks
Posted on 2025-07-17 17:16:13
Taichung officials say inspections of slime, a popular children's toy, have
found that five out of 11 products were substandard.

The city's Legal Affairs Bureau says it conducted checks on products made by
different manufacturers earlier this year, from both physical and online
stores.

All samples passed tests for heavy metal.

But five contained excessive levels of boron, a compound that gives the slime
its elastic texture, but in large amounts, can cause skin irritation and
other heatlh risks.

Consumer protection officials say in addition to recalling the products,
businesses must also provide refunds and other measures to protect consumer
rights.
