Health Canada released a consumer product advisory this week, warning that balloon-blowing kits that were available on Amazon.ca 'pose a chemical hazard.'
lol these have been around forever. It’s essentially some rubbery glue and a little straw. Very common in SEA. My mom used to blow them up for us because I could never do it right.

Drug enthusiasts: hallucinations, you say?
“That’s terrible! Where could one fine them? Why, so I could avoid them, of course!”
A quick Google search also reveals benzene from the balloon kits ranging from 26 to 44 ppm. Not great.
Oh that’s a hard no. Whippets it is!
I love carbon circles
When listing symptoms, don’t lead with euphoria.
Where can I buy these? I mean it to ensure I don’t buy them.
Can they ban all the batteries with lead from the kids toys too?
HaHa! Next year us Americans WONT have to put up with these Stupid Government Agencies telling us what Will and Will Not HARM our Children! LOSERS!
I’m assuming it’s the same as these? Been around forever here in the states.
what is this? im confused.
It’s a weird petrochemical fluid and some straws. You dip the straw and can blow a bubble that hardens on contact with the air. They come in colors.
They’re not much fun, and have been disappointing children for decades.
Smells like model airplane glue. So you know it’s good.
Apparently kid have been using them wrong, Health Canada makes them sound like a blast!
