The product, in the report: food chopper
The consumer stated that his wife was using the food chopper to prepare a meal. The consumer stated that when she was done cooking he went to eat the food and found sharp plastic pieces in the food. The consumer stated that he had placed food in his mouth and he felt the plastic pieces inside of his mouth.
The consumer stated that he wasn’t sure where the plastic came from and he decided to look at the inside of the chopper. The consumer stated he noticed the broken pieces that came from the collar (see picture). There is a ridge on the collar. Pieces of plastic chipped off of the ridge.
The consumer stated that no one was injured. Some of the plastic may have been swallowed.
The consumer stated that he contacted the manufacturer on May 10 2013 and the representative informed him that there was no problem with the food chopper. The consumer stated that the representative informed him that they were only aware of incidents in which the consumer did not properly use chopper. The representative clearly indicated that plastic pieces break off the collar- if the blade guard is not seated adequately or if it is missing.
The consumer stated this product should be investigated do to the safety hazard that it poses to consumers. The plastic pieces which are chipped off are dangerous if they are swallowed by an infant of by anyone.
