What do you think of those laundry detergent pods -- kind of handy, right? And such pretty colors, too. Yeah, that's what some small children think, too -- pretty like candy. Two-year-old Colin Langford mistook a detergent pod for candy and tried to eat it. He became seriously ill and wound up breathing through a tube at the hospital. This wasn't just a case of poisoning, either. He went to swallow it, but ended up inhaling it instead. Oh my god! What a horror. Colin survived, but his mother took the incident as a warning.![]()
