During use the nipples may separate creating a fatal choking hazard to young children. This recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

The pacifier is made of plastic with the required two holes and the word "TIDY" embossed on the outside of the shield. The pacifiers come in solid pastel colors of blue, pink, yellow, and white. The pacifiers were sold nationwide beginning in October 1989. Retailers were notified by the firm in October 1990 to stop sale of these pacifiers. Consumers are urged to take these pacifiers away from young children immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a refund of the purchase price. Consumers with questions about this recall may contact Luv N' Care at (318) 388-4916 or write Luv N' Care at 2813 DeSiard Street, Monroe, LA 71201.

Some 15,000 types of products fall within the Commission's jurisdiction and each year these products are involved in an estimated 30 million injuries and 22,000 deaths
