Welcome to CPSC’s Podcast for Friday, October 19, 2007. I’m Patty Davis.

In CPSC’s recall roundup this week….

Dunkin’ Donuts is recalling about one million glow sticks due to choking and strangulation hazards.

The recalled glow sticks are not properly labeled to warn consumers that the cap and the lanyard can detach, posing a choking hazard. Additionally, the lanyard poses a strangulation hazard to young children.

No incidents or injuries have been reported.

The pink and orange glow sticks were given away free with purchases of donuts from September through October 2007.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled glow sticks away from young children and return them to any Dunkin’ Donuts for a free donut.
