RECALL: 36,000 Toys R Us Toy Toaster Sets Due to Choking Hazard

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in conjunction with Toys R Us Inc., of Wayne, N.J., has announced a voluntary recall of about 36,000 Just Like Home Toy Toaster Sets because the plastic toast, under pressure, can crack and break into small pieces creating sharp edges and posing a choking hazard.

The toaster measures about 4 inches in height by 5-1/2 inches in length by 2 inches in width. The toaster set was sold with two plastic toast slices and two plastic half-bagel slice accessories. Model number 5F60589 is printed on a white label on the bottom of the toaster and above the UPC bar code in the lower right-hand corner of the product packaging.
