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.

Pooh in their diapers is not supposed to get into their mouths! LOL!

Are we supposed to return the underwear with Pooh still in them to get the full refund?

Sara Lee and undies? Children choking on Pooh?
I think I have lost my desire for her chocolate cakes.
To: JenB
Promotional items, freebies, loss leaders, why does anything have decals?

Are we supposed to return the underwear with Pooh still in them to get the full refund? Depends. Are they offering a full refund on underwear, or a refund on full underwear?

Some adults would beg to differ.I know of one line of edible undies that Sara Lee would never make...

I am picturing myself in the woods a year from now being asked by a reporter "So what made you this way? - When did you snap?"

Somehow I just know poor Eeyore is going to be made the scapegoat for all of this.
