Food

A lot of products got mis-packaged this week so if you or your child has food allergies look closely at what you're about to eat and not just the incredients. General Mills is recalling a day's production of Chocolate flavor Fiber One 90-Calorie Chewy Bars because they may actually be the peanut butter flavor. And the 5.5-ounce boxes of Murray Sugar Free Chocolate Chip Cookies may actually contain the pecan variety. What's more, your Lean Cuisine Dinnertime Selects may be labeled chicken fettuccini but could instead be the lemon garlic shrimp.   

Toys

If you bought your child a frog mask at Target you should immediately take it back before you take the chance of having a not-so-happy Halloween. There's a suffocation hazard because there's not enough ventilation.

Guidecraft's Twist 'n Sort toys have small pegs on three posts that can detach. That's a choking hazard, so bring them back. B.O.B. jogging strollers are having a similar problem -  both the single and double strollers have a canopy containing small detachable pieces.

Ikea's Children's Folding Tent has a steel wire fram that - it turns out - can break, protrude through the tent fabric and seriously poke and puncture playing children.

WARNING: Please note, moms, this is only a sampling of product recalls, ones we reported with expectations they might be of interest to you. Many other products - even potentially similar ones - are not recorded here. What's more, items creep onto this list constantly, so please keep that in mind when you're considering what's safe for your family.
