What is the danger
The product poses a risk of choking because it can be mistaken for a real mushroom. These mushrooms fit completely into the small parts cylinder. They may therefore present risks for the safety of consumers, in particular children (choking, obstruction of the digestive tract). The product does not comply with the Directive 87/357/EEC on products which, appearing to be other than they are, endanger the health or safety of consumers.
