Review on 🧀 Glove Station Super Tough Puncture-resistant by Steve Cooper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Warning label 'This product contains Benzidine'

So I don't normally pay attention to California Prop 65 warnings, but these gloves came with a very specific 'Benzidine' warning. I didn't know what it was so I googled it. It's a dye whose production has been banned in the US since 1973 because of its carcinogenic potential, although it still allows the sale of products made with benzidine dyes. It seems that some of the highest risks are associated with its use. So do I want to handle my food with those pretty purple gloves that something nasty can spill out of or not? Maybe the risk is infinitesimal, but I really don't know. I decided not to risk it and sent the gloves back. I gave two stars because of the intimidating factor.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn
