The story so far

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a warning to consumers to immediately stop using Ivyapingdianpu’s Squishy Bun Toys. The toys pose a risk of serious injury or death if ingested, as they contain water beads that violate mandatory safety standards. The CPSC's warning follows the recall of thousands of squishy dumpling toys, which are similar in nature to the Squishy Bun Toys.

The recall was prompted by the potential hazards of choking and intestinal blockage, particularly for young children. The CPSC has advised consumers to dispose of the toys immediately and not to return them to the retailer. The recall notice was published on the CPSC's website and has been picked up by major news outlets, including Yahoo, QZ, NewsNation and WSB-TV.

The CPSC has not yet specified the number of toys recalled or the number of incidents related to the hazard. The CPSC has not yet specified whether the manufacturer or retailer will offer any compensation to consumers who purchased the toys.
