‘Princess and Frog’ children’s necklaces recalled for cadmium
Related: cadmium, Princess and Frog, recall
Another day, another recall. Federal consumer safety regulators have announced the recall of The Princess and The Frog pendants due to high levels of the toxic metal cadmium.
The recall affects two products, which add up to about 55,000 items, sold exclusively at Walmart stores for $5 each. The action was taken voluntarily by jewelry company FAF Inc. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission had been testing for cadmium in children’s metal jewelry for several weeks, responding to an Associated Press investigation that reported high levels of the carcinogen in the Disney movie-themed pendants and other children’s metal jewelry, which were imported from China.
