The bottom base of some Green Sprouts products can break off, exposing a solder dot that contains the toxic metal, a federal regulator said. No injuries have been reported from such incidents.
Green Sprouts said it voluntarily recalled its products after it was made aware that the sippy cups and bottles contained lead.
"Testing of this component was omitted by the CPSC-approved third party lab because this part of the product is inaccessible under normal use," the company."As we approach the redesign of these products, whose benefits for keeping drinks cold safely have made them a popular choice for parents, we will ensure that lead is not used as a soldering material."
The tracking codes printed at the bottom of the recalled products are 29218V06985, 35719V06985 and 33020V06985. They were sold between January 2020 and September 2022.,"including the use of lead solder to seal the external seams of metal cans." Due to lead's non-biodegradable nature, the metal can contaminate the food supply.. Lead exposure in children can cause a range of adverse health effects including developmental delays and learning disabilities.
