‘Enjoy’ T-Shirts Recalled

About 6,000 Chinese-made t-shirts have been recalled because they can cause allergic reactions if not washed before use:
Tests by parties including a public health center in Amagasaki, Hyogo Prefecture, found formaldehyde in a yellow “Enjoy” T-shirt sold at Osaka-based clothing retailer Starvations. A 9-month-old girl from Amagasaki was also reported to have come out in a rash after wearing another T-shirt design. Three complaints over the T-shirts were reportedly received.
The formaldehyde is thought to have come from ink used for printing on the T-shirts, which were produced at a factory in China. Formaldehyde dissolves in water, and it can reportedly be washed out.
