Announce Recall of Pacifiers Sold at Bath & Body Works WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Atico International USA Inc., of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., is recalling approximately 13,000 pacifiers, sold both as part of a diaper bag gift set and individually as a pacifier with clip.

This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injuries. The pacifiers have an off-white plastic, oblong shield with a ring handle. The diaper bag gift set included a pacifier, a baby bottle and changing pad. Writing on the side of the diaper bag read, "Doody Bag." The pacifier with clip has a circular moss-green plastic clip which is designed to attach to a child's clothing. The clip has a mauve-colored ribbon designed to attach to the pacifier. The words, "Plug me in & enjoy the silence" are written on the clip. Bath & Body Works stores nationwide sold the pacifiers in the gift set and the pacifier with clip between June 1998 and September 1998. The diaper bag gift set sold for about $28 and the pacifier with clip sold for about $4.
