I heard this on Fox news today but didn't have time to look into it. I now have had some research time and see no posts on this so I'll start one. The article I found started with: Bed Bath and Beyond recalls tissue holder on radiation worry. Retailer has pulled product that emits low levels of radiation.

I did not want to use the title of the article because this isn't a Bed Bath & Beyond issue as they don't make the product. I think we are starting to see the beginning of the radioactive problems we are about to face. TPTB are stating it's nothing to worry about, they won't identify the levels or the radioactive material. This combined with the cars coming from Japan that show radioactive levels is not good.

U.S. home merchandise retailer Bed Bath and Beyond Inc is recalling tissue holders because one of its materials emits low levels of radiation, the company said on Friday.

According to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRD), there is no health threat from the item, the Dual Ridge Metal boutique tissue holder, the company said in a statement.


ETA: It also doesn't state where the tissue holders are manufactured but I'm guessing China. I just don't know.

Here's a little more from the Huffington Post. Looks like they came from India.

Bed, Bath & Beyond Inc. said in a statement Thursday that its Dual Ridge Metal boutique tissue holder has been carried in about 200 of its stores since July. It said it was recalling all of the tissue holders and asking any customers who bought them to return them for a full refund.
