Lead found in Disney shopping bags

TAMPA Disney is the latest big-name company to find reusable shopping bags with its name on it may be tainted with lead.

In this case, a consumer advocacy group Center for Environmental Health tested Disney-themed bags sold at Safeway grocery stores, and found some bags had lead levels as much as 17 times above the federal limits for children's products.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission allows 300 parts per million of lead in products marketed to children. In August this year, that level will fall to 100.
