Johnson & Johnson puts formaldehyde in your baby’s shampoo

How’s this for completely messed up? Disturbing enough that that even media giant Forbes is getting on this company’s case. This is probably because a month ago, Forbes fumbled the ball by praising Johnson & Johnson as the most trusted brand in America.

Yes, it’s true. Forbes now reports that there are two known carcinogens in Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo being sold in the United States, Canada and China. Those nasty chemicals have been removed in other countries – I’m guessing the ones where they are outlawed (by law). Thanks to the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, the company and its admirers haven’t been able to repress this information.

By the way, in the US Johnson & Johnson sells a formaldehyde free version of its baby shampoo for double the price.
