lol yes, baby powder (which is talcum) is bad for you. There was a large lawsuit in the UK in 2025 with 3000 claimants against Johnson & Johnson regarding their Baby Powder, and sale of baby powder has been stopped in the UK in 2023.

I thought they updated the ingredients after that! Noooooooooo! My balls!!!!

There's no updating anything with talcum, sadly. It is practically inseperable from asbestos, and they appear side by side/intermingled, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talc#Association_with_asbestos

But the replacements using Corn Starch are fine (and in my experience it also works pretty good)!
