Sold in Primark and Penneys stores across the UK and Ireland, a further children’s plates recall has been announced due to the possible migration of lead and formaldehyde into food.
This follows the widespread Winnie the Pooh plate recall in August for the same safety concerns.
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland announced the further plate recall today, encouraging customers to check their purchases and know how to proceed.
See the full details of the affected products below.

What’s the Risk?
These products have been found to release trace amounts of lead and formaldehyde at levels higher than EU regulation permitted levels, and this may present a risk if ingested.
