60,000 Wawa-branded drink tumblers are under recall due to a laceration hazard posed by the products’ metal straw the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says.
The recall notice published by the Commission Thursday, says the metal straw inside the tumblers can cut a user’s mouth and/or fingers. Four injuries have been reported to date officials said.
Consumers are immediately urged stop using the metal straws and contact Illinois-based Halo Branding Solutions, the tumblers’ distributor, for a silicone replacement. If a customer would also like to return the tumbler, they can receive a $15 refund in the form of a gift card.
Consumers should not try to return the tumblers to Wawa the notice said. More more information about how to participate is on Halo’s website.
The recalled tumblers were sold exclusively at Wawa stores across Alabama, Washington, D.C., Delaware, Florida, North Carolina, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Maryland in August of this year for about $13,officials said. The 24-ounce drinkware came in four different styles; “The Mermaid” which is pink/green, “Island Surf” which is blue/yellow, “Sailor Breeze” which is tan/orange, and “The Galaxy” which is blue/pink.
