YES !!!!! Or candy flavored ! Remember Orange children's asprin ? Mrs. cbelt3 had a childhood overdose on those because she thought they were candy. Early 60's.
And remember this...
"The good old days" had just as many if not more incidents involving children. You just did not hear about it because 24 hour news wasn't a thing.
I would love to see a nice analysis (anyone in Grad school ?) where actual crime statistics was related to reports about crime over time. I expect some wildly diverging lines.
