POPULAR 'toxic waste' sweet have been recalled over choking fears. <\/p>\n
The sweet's rolling ball, which dispenses the sour liquid, could come loss and and become trapped in a child's throat. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Candy Dynamics which manufactures\u00a0the Toxic Waste Slime Lickers has recalled several different batches of of the sweet, including flavours blue razz, strawberry, black cherry and sour apple. <\/p>\n
The alert, issued just days before sweet-filled Halloween, told parents to take the treat away from children "immediately". <\/p>\n
"The applicator ball can detach from the product's container posing a choking hazard for consumers," it explained. <\/p>\n
The manufacturer said products with one of the following batch codes are unsafe to eat: <\/p>\n
The numbers can be found on the side of the bottle, along the bar code. <\/p>\n The Food Standards Agency (FSA) which issued the alert, recalls food considered unsafe for human consumption.<\/p>\n It called the sweet a "choking hazard" and urged customers who had bought affected batches to "return them to the store from where they were bought to discuss options for a full refund". <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Customers will only receive refunds for sweets which have no been eaten, it added. <\/p>\n It\u2019s a parents worst nightmare to imagine a situation in which their child is choking. <\/p>\n The NHS says if you can see an object lodged in your child\u2019s mouth, take care to remove it because blindly poking at it could make things worse.<\/p>\n If the child is coughing, encourage them to continue as they may be able to bring the object up – don't leave them.<\/p>\n If the coughing isn\u2019t effective (it is silent or they cannot breathe properly), shout for help immediately.<\/p>\n If the child is still conscious, use back blows.\u00a0<\/p>\n First aiders at\u00a0St John Ambulance\u00a0give the following advice based on the child\u2019s age.<\/p>\n Baby<\/strong><\/p>\n 2.
