Good morning! It’s Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.

Mattel's packaging for its latest dolls came with a wicked mistake.

A link,NSI Community printed on the back of the box, led to a pornographic website, prompting dolls to be pulled from shelves across the country. Meanwhile, some dolls with the labeling error are being resold online for over $100.

Shrimp lovers will notice a key item missing from Red Lobster's new menu, Anthony Robledo reports.

Last year, the seafood chain made all-you-can-eat shrimp a permanent menu item after two decades of offering it for a limited time. The decision proved costly.
