Top Goods Trading Recalls Flashing Pacifiers Due to Choking and Strangulation Hazard

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

Units: About 38,000

Importer: Top Goods Trading, of Temple City, Calif.

Manufactured in: China
