Candy linked to melamine scare in China

A recall was issued for chocolate coins manufactured by Sherwood brand.
The Pirate's Gold Milk Chocolate coins are being recalled due to the fact that they contain Melamine, the ingredient in milk product that has caused many infant deaths in China.

These candies are sold at Costco, as well as many bulk and dollar stores. Please make sure to check your childrens halloween candy and DO NOT LET THEM EAT THE PIRATE COINS (you know the ones wrapped in the shiny gold foil) and please let other parents know about this!

I have received many emails, and did confirm this on Snopes myself... Check out the chocolate purchased at Costco or other places, and be sure to remove any suspect coins. The melamine scare is not at all funny, and should be treated seriously...
