BOSTON (CBS) – If you haven’t heard of Lazy Cakes, authorities in Fall River and New Bedford wish it would stay that way.
They want them banned from stores because they could be harmful to children.
So what is a Lazy Cake? On the company’s Facebook page, they call it a “Tasty chocolate treat that brings on the ultimate state of relaxation.”
“The magic of Lazy Cakes™, the original relaxation brownie, is in its proprietary blend that includes herbal relaxation aids melatonin, Valerian Root Extract, Rose Hips Extract, and Passion Flower,” the company says.
That’s the problem, according to Fall River Mayor William Flanagan.
“These brownies are laced with melatonin,” he said at a news conference Thursday. “Melatonin is a sleep aid.”
“If someone wants to buy melatonin, that’s fine, but it shouldn’t be in a brownie that’s packaged to attract kids,” he added.
