Ignite Recalls Kids Straw Tumblers Due to Risk of Ingestion

Ignite is recalling Bueno by Contigo kids straw tumblers in the US over the risk of ingestion. If a child chews on the drinking straw, small pieces can break off into the child's mouth, posing a risk of ingestion or aspiration of the small part.

This recall includes eight different styles of plastic drinking tumblers. The tumblers were sold with a lid and a straw. Some of the straws have a plastic mold in the shape of fangs, lips, a mustache or a zipper affixed to the top. The tumblers are branded "Bueno by Contigo" on the retail packaging and "Bueno" on the lid of the cup.

Model numbers are printed on a label affixed to the bottom of the cup. Straw tumblers with the letter "B" engraved on the underside of the lid beneath the model number are not included in this recall.

No illnesses have been reported associated with the recall.

The recalled products were sold at Meijer and Target retail stores nationwide from May 2015 through September 2015 for about $6.
