Gerber Recalls Soothe N Chew Teething Sticks in 45 States Due to Choking Hazard

Gerber has issued a widespread recall of its 'Soothe N Chew' teething sticks due to a serious choking hazard that has already resulted in at least one emergency room visit. The recall affects all batches of the strawberry, apple, and banana flavors, spanning across 45 states and Puerto Rico, with retail outlets including Walmart, Target, and Publix. Customers are advised to immediately stop using the affected products and return them for a full refund. The recall was prompted by multiple consumer complaints regarding choking incidents. Gerber, a trusted name in baby products for nearly a century, has discontinued these items as a precautionary measure. Parents are encouraged to check their homes for these products and ensure the safety of their children.
