Plain-English summary

Todo Dollar Wholesale, of Los Angeles, Calif., is recalling approximately 102,000 units of the Flashing Pacifier with Whistle Necklace and Flashing Pacifier Shock Baby Necklace. The recalled products consist of a 28-inch multi-colored cord with a 3-inch plastic pacifier in assorted colors. The pacifier handle operates as the on-off button for the flashing light, and on the Whistle Necklace version, the nipple serves as a whistle with a hole at the tip.

The recall was issued because the nipple can detach from the pacifier, posing a choking hazard to young children. No injuries have been reported in connection with these products. The pacifiers were manufactured in China and sold via internet sales, distributors, and small retail stores from January 2004 through November 2004 for about $1 each.

Consumers should stop using the recalled pacifiers immediately and return them to the store where purchased to receive a refund. For additional information, consumers can call Todo Dollar Wholesale toll-free at (866) 325-4732 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. PT, Monday through Friday.
