WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Sara Lee Underwear is recalling Winnie the Pooh infant underwear because decorative decals can break apart, possibly causing children to choke, company officials announced Friday.

The company has not received any reports of injury, but is recalling the underwear as a precaution.

The company has notified the Consumer Product Safety Commission of the recall.

The underwear is white and has decals of Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Piglet over the script "Pooh and friends." The line, on the market since April 2001, was sold at Wal-Mart, Gabriel Brothers and other stores.

Retailers have been asked to remove the underwear from their shelves.

Customers who return the underwear will receive a full refund.

I didn't know any real disgusting stuff until I got my education on FR. I've learned some crazy things here... And then I come back for more. Go figure.

... so I guess this isn't the place to trade nostalgic recollections of Winnie the Pooh underwear ...

... oh, bother ...

[Zviadist]

made in China, no doubt. Another victory for globalism.

See, edible undies are expensive. I prefer to grab whatever is in the cupboard. Pudding, fruit-roll-ups, chocolate sauce, ice, etc.

Bella, I am shocked....No tequila?

Eat my shorts.....Bart Simpson

Can some US manufacturer get the contract for Taliban Head Wrappers....and pull the same stunt.

Even better would be to tastefully decorate the said headwrappers with laser reflectors and cruse missile homing beacons....

Y'all are a bunch of sick, demented characters, I see at last. Such filth, you should all be very very ashamed of yorselves. Really.

[habs4ever]

You're my kind of lady, CC ;-)

[habs4ever]

Oh, change your underwear...

[hobbes1]

still happy...excellent...coquette hunting?

[Dakmar]

Never! :(

[NeoCaveman]

coquette hunting? At this point I just let them hunt me.... and I always let them catch me!

[NeoCaveman]

I learned a valuable lesson tonight, bars that are next to strip joints are often crawling with off duty strippers
So cool, but kind of weid to see them full clothed.

[NeoCaveman]

weid = weird

[xsmommy]

Just call it a mutual exchange of sarcastic jibes - all on a professional level of course (she being much more of a pro than me, LOL).

Quit tring to suck up to me, shyster....

[hobbes1]
