Does this say anywhere on the packaging- known to the state of California to cause cancer or birth defects? Need to know that before buying. Thanks!

Sorry it took so long for me to answer. No, it does not say that on the label. This product is great for NOT stabbing yourself with tiny wires! It is finger friendly and looks very nice too. I'll never go back to uncoated wire.

It does not say anything like that on the label. I also love using this wire.

That's really weird. This product has a single ingredient and it's "certified organic butter (milk)". California is a crazy state so I wouldn't worry. They may just consider saturated fat a carcinogen.

Thanks for your interest in this item. Please note some products are prohibited to ship for State of California. It might be due to legal jurisdiction or by local laws.

Alluminum and Nickle lead all caused cancer but you said that you thought that they may have be taken heavy metal out of their product and that is too what I read somewhere. Phennylalamine is an amino acid and the state of California has banned it .Do you think they took it out too?Please e mail me if allowed if bit leave a comment thx medicine

Same reason my building lobby warns all who enter that the building contains cancer causing substances: because we are an overly-litigious society of damned fools. At least in California. Just the same, I don't recommending eating or otherwise ingesting this product.

"WARNING:This product contains lead;a chemical that is known to cause cancer and birth defects.Please do not place product in mouth or your hands after handling the product.Wash hands after touching." ...as written on bottom of tin can.

Hi, The state of California enacted Proposition 65 which entitles their residents to be notified when ingestible products contain any ingredients described in the Prop 65 list of compounds that may cause cancer or birth defects. The products that you encounter everyday may have a Prop 65 warning that you were unaware of such as tap water, eye glasses, kitchen applicances etc. Macrolife has listed this on the label that may contain naturally occurring metals. This is due to the naturally occurring state that the products are grown in the ground. We believe in wild harvesting most of our ingredients to preserve their integrity. Prop 65 warning does not necessarily mean a product is in violation of any product-safety standards or requirements. Hope it helps. Thank you.

Here is the text of the warning that comes on the box: Warning: The materials used as colored decorations on the exterior of this product contain lead chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. So the answer is yes.

I'm not sure, but I'm definitely curious now! When I bought mine I don't recall there being any warnings so you've sparked my interest. According to various sites you have to contact the manufacturer directly to obtain the information, but I really liked the information found on the national cancer institutes website. Here's the link, http://m.cancer.org/cancer/cancercauses/othercarcinogens/athome/cancer-warning-labels-based-on-californias-proposition-65 Hope that helps a little!

I did a little research after reading your question as it was concerning. In a number of places I noticed other consumers suggesting that California is over doing it and giving everything a prop 65. Playdoh has been around for decades, I highly doubt that it's going to seriously harm any children.

I believe it has to do with trace amounts of lead in items grown in soil, which is practically unavoidable. Google Prop 65 and try calling Vibrant Health for clarification. You probably got a container meant for California.

The label has california prop 65 warning.. Says there is lead in this product. -- I just looked at the pictures here on amazon.

Probably owing to labeling laws about "contains substances known to the State of California cause blahblahblah" when the mere act of living in California is itself known to cause worse.

I've heard nothing of the sort. That doesn't mean anything, though, since California has too many stringent rules and I can't keep up with all of them. I've use this product for several years without issue, but that's just me. I think it's worth trying, but you'll have to use your best judgment. What is the chemical that you're concerned about?

Since the nuclear plant had and explosion, I wouldn't feel comfortable taking any product that is naturally harvested in that area. Don't take a chance. If i see California Prop 65, I don't buy it. There is a reason for the warning.

Seriously??? Uhmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I'm sure it is some kind of "Palm Cancer" California passed out like candy back in the 50's...If you check the labels on just about ANYTHING you buy these days, California says it will cause cancer...Like Vanilla ice Cream, for example..."Who'duh'thot?"
