The European Commission is urgently recalling a popular “squishy” toy following fears it may be mistaken for food, and cause children to choke on it.

The label of the squeeze toy reads “Squishes - Slow Rising Scented Squishy,” according to the EC’s Rapid Alert System for dangerous non-food products.
