"The children who grew up around Pantasote Inc. in Passaic had the run of a toxic playground. While the plastics factory blew gas and powdery dust into the summer breeze, young Pedro Soto and his friends built clubhouses out of sumac branches on the property." (THE RECORD) This article considers the potential health risks that Passaic residents may have been exposed to as a result of Pantasote spewing and spilling "its chemicals into the neighborhood."
