I think it is so stupid that Payless had to recall those shoes. My kids have the Spongebob clogs and have never tried to EAT them! They love them and hate wearing anything else. Kids if unsupervised, will eat just about anything,why make the rest of us suffer because they can’t watch their children, when destroying a pair of perfectly good shoes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
