Well, so much for my Lazy Cakes evening experiment.
I just realized I didn’t include a link to the Lazy Cakes site in the last post, thus, I Googled ‘Lazy Cakes’ so I could get the URL and edit the post.
Lo and behold, my Google search revealed new info released last week: Lazy Cakes have been deemed unsafe by the FDA and are in danger of being seized from shelves if their manufacturer, HBB LLC, does not recall the product!
According to a NY Daily News report, “Michael Roosevelt of the FDA said the agency is not aware of data that establishes the safety of melatonin for use as an ingredient in foods. He cited medical research that has shown concerns about potential reproductive, cardiovascular, ocular and neurological issues as side effects of using the drug.”
Melatonin is what puts the lazy in lazy cakes, by the way.
The original Lazy Cakes web site has been disabled. Now, the product name has been changed to Lazy Larry, complete with new web site.
SCANDAL!!!
Look, I’m not a huge fan of the FDA, but I think I’ll go ahead and skip this experiment, regardless.
Borrrr-ing!
