I have the following piece of code:

private String toString(List<DrugStrength> aDrugStrengthList) {
    StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
        for (DrugStrength aDrugStrength : aDrugStrengthList) {
            if (!aDrugStrength.isValidDrugDescription()) {
                aDrugStrengthList.remove(aDrugStrength);
            }
        }
        str.append(aDrugStrengthList);
        if (str.indexOf("]") != -1) {
            str.insert(str.lastIndexOf("]"), "\n          " );
        }
    return str.toString();
}

When I try to run it, I get ConcurrentModificationException, can anyone explain why it happens, even if the code is running in same thread? And how could I avoid it?
