As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.
The reports, as CPSC published them
Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.
Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

The product, in the report: Ben’s Original Ready Rice pouch, all sizes and varieties. (I also note that other manufacturers of similar products use the same material and pose the same hazard.)
Ben’s Ready Rice pouches have extremely sharp edges, and I have been cut by them twice now simply by handling them.
