What happened

Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled Ivyapingdianpu’s Squishy Bun Toys due to the risk of serious injury or death from water bead ingestion. The recall follows months of child hospitalizations due to choking and intestinal blockage risks. The CPSC warns that the toys violate mandatory standards for water beads.

The recall comes after warnings from poison experts and news outlets about the dangers of counterfeit squishy toys. WSB-TV and WESH have covered the risks associated with these toys, with WSB-TV noting hospitalizations and WESH warning about counterfeit products. The New York Post and Yahoo News have also reported on the recall, emphasizing the immediate danger posed by the toys.

The recall specifically targets Ivyapingdianpu’s Squishy Bun Toys, but the presence of counterfeit products complicates the situation. Consumers are advised to stop using these toys immediately. The CPSC’s warning underscores the seriousness of the hazard, but the extent of counterfeit products in the market remains unclear.
