Re: Paulson Chips contain toxic levels of lead - Associated Press
My TRKing chips, which I've owned for 10+ years, contain lead. My Blue Chip Co. chips do not. Nor do my plastic faux clay chips. I tested each this morning with a lead testing kit.
My only real concern about lead in chips is that I like to riffle my chips while playing, and I have a stack of chips by my computer that I riffle while on line. If you are someone who likes to riffle chips, and use chips with lead, I imagine that riffling chips will release some kind of particles into the air. How much of a health hazard it is, I don't know.
But I guess all things being equal, why play with chips manufactured with lead? Especially if you do have children at home.
