      Recall Roundup: Extra Scary Edition

      By Laura Northrup, 1:00 PM on Sat Oct 31 2009, 5,451 views

      It's Halloween, and what's scarier than exploding DVD player batteries and killer flatware? Or dairy lurking in an innocent-looking tortilla? What about a zombie ATV that accelerates on its own?

      Cambridge Silversmiths flatware: Plastic inserts can detach; choking hazard
      Coby Electronics portable DVD/CD/MP3 player batteries - fire hazard
      Haunted House candle holders sold at Yankee candle - fire hazard
      Bad Boy Buggy off-road vehicles - has rogue accelerator
      Handy Switch Wireless Light Switches - fire hazard (see this post)
      Roman shades sold at Bed Bath and Beyond and Whole Space - strangulation hazard
      Roller blinds from IKEA - strangulation hazard
      Belkin SurgeMaster Surge Protectors - electric shock hazard
      Sony VAIO AC adapters - electric shock hazard
      Halloween flashlights from Target - burn hazard
      Kroger Hazelnut Spread - undeclared peanuts
      Agro Sun Dried Fruits and Nuts Tropical Mix - undeclared sulfites
      Breyers All Natural ice cream - undeclared wheat
      Dove Caramel Pecan Perfection Ice Cream - undeclared peanuts
      Mrs. Rios and Pop's Bakery tortillas - undeclared dairy
      Accusure Insulin Syringes - needles may detach

      The CPSC has also put out a warning about My Baby Soother pacifiers, which apparently pose a choking hazard. However, the manufacturer will not recall the product, which was sold only in the New York metro area.
