What to do

Affected products

This recall involves a batch of Fridababy Canadian-market (water-filled) Not-Too-Cold-To-Hold teethers. The recalled teethers can be identified by UPC 810028773929 and lot number 0072501001, which are printed on the back of the packaging. The lot number is also located on the side of each of the product inserts. These products were only sold in Canada.

The version of the product sold in all other markets is different internally (gel-filled) and is not affected.

Issue

Under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act, teether fillings must not contain any living microbes, as they are listed on Schedule 2 and therefore prohibited. Health Canada’s sampling and evaluation program has determined that the liquid filling in units tested by Health Canada contained living microbes Deinococcus ficus and Deinococcus grandis/daejeonenis. These microbes are commonly found in the environment and not associated with any known human health risks.

As of April 14, 2026, the company has received no report of incidents or injuries in Canada.
