More than 10,000 Green Sprouts Stainless Steel Straw Bottles, Sippy Cups and Sip & Straw Cups have been recalled as the bottom base can break off, exposing a solder dot that contains lead, posing a lead poisoning hazard to the child.
Lead is toxic if ingested by young children, and can cause adverse health effects.
