"Toddler Permanently Disabled After Choking on Candy Land Gummy Dot, Lawsuit Claims"
A toddler in California is left permanently disabled after choking on a Candy Land Gummy Dot, leading to irreversible brain damage and spastic quadriplegia. The lawsuit alleges that the candy is defectively designed, excessively sticky, and lacks adequate safety warnings, and seeks more than $50,000 in damages from the candy manufacturer and toy maker. The family's attorney asserts that the candy was marketed to attract children and poses a significant choking hazard, resulting in severe injuries to the young girl.
