Grand World is recalling more than 640,000 "Bobby Chupete" pacifiers because they fail to meet federal safety standards. The pacifier mouth guard is too small, posing a choking hazard to infants and toddlers.
This recall involves Bobby Chupete pacifiers. The pacifiers have a ring-shaped handle and heart-shaped mouth guard with two ventilation holes. The nipple is made of latex. Bobby Chupete and a picture of an infant are printed on the pacifiers packaging. The pacifier was sold in aqua, red, white or yellow colors.
The pacifiers, made in China, were sold at various retail stores nationwide from November 2004 through July 2009 for about $1.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled pacifiers away from infants and toddlers and contact Grand World for a refund or a replacement pacifier.
For additional information, call Grand World collect at (718) 326-7786 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or visit the firms Web site at www.grandworldinc.com.
