"Child's Death Prompts Nationwide Recall of Rolling Candies"
TL;DR
Over 70 million rolling candies made by two different manufacturers have been recalled after a 7-year-old girl in New York choked to death. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recalls, which include Slime Licker Sour Rolling Liquid Candy from Candy Dynamics and Rolling Candy from Cocco Candy. The candies dispense flavored liquid through a rolling ball that can become dislodged and pose a choking hazard to children. Consumers are advised to keep the candies away from children and contact the manufacturers for a refund.
