The agency's original wording
Hazard

The squishy toys violate the mandatory safety standard for toys because the water beads inside the toys expand larger than permitted, posing a deadly ingestion hazard. If a water bead is ingested, it can pose ingestion, choking, and intestinal obstruction hazards inside a child’s body, resulting in severe discomfort, vomiting, dehydration and a risk of death to a child.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the squishy toys immediately and contact ABC Trading for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write “RECALLED” in permanent marker on the squishy toys, throw the toy away and email a photo of the disposed toy to recallabc@gmail.com.
