Green Sprouts has recalled 10,500 stainless steel straw bottles, sippy cups and sip & straw cups.
Bottles and Cups Sold In New York May Cause Lead Poisoning
The bottoms of the recalled stainless-steel bottles and cups might break off. This will expose a solder dot that contains lead, posing a lead-poisoning threat to the child, according to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission.
"Lead is toxic if ingested by young children, and can cause adverse health effects," the Consumer Product Safety Commission states in its advisory.
