Gerber Baby Food Recall

I guess we’re on a recall kick! I saw this on the news over the weekend . . . a dad was sifting (literally) through some Gerber Organic baby food (rice, etc.) and found some large chunks in it. The chunks did not disolve in the water as the rest of the boxed food did. HUGE choking hazard for the babies!

Here are some links for more information:

Gerber Food Recall #1

Gerber Food Recall #2 - this is the Gerber Web site. There’s a teeny tiny red hyperlink at the top that opens a teeny tiny press release from them.

Also, if you haven’t already read about it, go here to check out the Thomas the Tank Engine Wooden Railway System recall.

And finally, check out this Parent Center article on lead poisoning in children and ways to prevent it. Lead poisoning seems like it was an issue so long ago, but obviously there are still hazards out there. I know I know . . . there are hazards everywhere . . . but it never hurts to be informed!

    Thanks so much for the information!

    You’d think they’d stop using lead in children’s products! What is so hard about just using something that is not harmful to children?
