BRIO Baby Rattles Recalled Over Potential Choking Hazard

Unfortunately for parents, toy recalls have been in the news quite a bit lately.

Spanish Sonrise Dairy Recalls Raw Milk Amid E. Coli Concerns

After testing positive for E. coli, a dairy farm is recalling unpasteurized, raw milk to protect the public from the bacteria that can “cause serious infections, especially in young children.” The farm, Spanish Sunrise Dairy in Yacolt, WA, actually has a “history of pathogen problems,” and posted their latest recall earlier this week on Tuesday. According to the recall notice on the Washington State Department of Agriculture’s website, “Consumers who have purchased Spanish Sonrise Dairy raw milk with a Best By date of 08-23 are urged not to drink the product and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.”
