Thermos has recalled 8.2 million bottles and food jars from its King and Sportsman lines because the stoppers do not have necessary pressure-release valves, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).e60dc2a1-f33c-4a05-9b50-8e3e8e59762912d5bcd9-d0d7-4c48-9a70-138bc77b3c94 These bottles and jars came in a variety of colors, and were sold at Target, Walmart, Amazon, Thermos.com , and other stores nationwide and online from around March 2008 to July 2024 for about $30. According to CPSC, if food or drinks are stored in the recalled containers for an “extended period,” the stopper can pop off forcefully when opened, which could cause serious impact injuries or lacerations. Nearly 30 people have been hurt, including three who sustained permanent vision loss. Which Thermos Bottles and Jars Were Recalled?
