Diana Cage, whose advice I generally trust, writes in Girl Meets Girl that cheap rubber toys are a bad idea because they contain phylates, which can leach into the bloodstream through mucous membranes.
I always thought those were phthalates. Can anyone double-check me on this? I'm particularly suspicious because the same page misspells 'mucous membranes' as 'mucus membranes'.
