      Performance Packaging of Las Vegas, Nevada, is recalling about 6,000 PouchPop Toppers.

The pouch toppers have a “SipP” logo and smiley face embossed on the circular base.

      The recalled product, manufactured in the U.S., was sold exclusively online at www.Amazon.com, www.littlegreenpouch.com and www.jackbenatural.com from May through September 2014 for about $10.
