Playtex is recalling Children’s PLaytex plates and bowls for a possible choking hazard. The clear plastic layer over the graphics on these products can peel or bubble from the surface of the plates and bowls. Playtex has received 372 reports of the clear plastic layer bubbling or peeling. There are 11 reports of the detached clear plastic found in children’s mouths. And there have been four reports of choking on a piece of the clear plastic layer.
The plates have printed designs on them, including cars, construction scenes, giraffes, princesses, superheroes, and more. The white polypropylene plates and bowls have a colored rim on top and a non-slip bottom.
Playtex is written on the bottom of the plates and bowls. These products were sold separately and as sets. A Mealtime set contains a plate, a bowl, two utensils, and a cup. About 3.6 million units were sold in the U.S., and 1.9 million were sold in Canada.
