Two lollipops discovered in Florida that contained metal fragments spurred a recall on Valentine's Day of the Pokemon-themed candy, and created a panic in Oklahoma, when an anonymous fax claimed that similar candy had injured 60 local children.
One lollipop contained a "small razor-like blade," while the other contained a "small, staplelike fragment" -- both, according to investigators, apparently due to defective manufacturing rather than intentional tampering.
The Oklahoma fax claimed that 60 children had been "poisoned by lollipops," but no evidence has surfaced to support the claim.
