Can you tell off-brand products from the brand name ones?
Question by actormyk: Can you tell off-brand products from the brand name ones?
And what I mean by this is, if you are shopping and a store brand of peanut butter is right beside the Jif, but it’s in the same shaped can and the same color coded lid for creamy and crunchy, can you be fairly safe in assuming that Jif is in there with a generic or store brand label? I don’t mind some generic brands, but there are some foods I’d just as soon pay a little more to get the name brand on the label. But if the same product is in the container right beside it but with a less expensive label on it, then I’ll get the off-brand. Thanks.

important info re: infantino brand slings!!!?
Question by Sheryl: important info re: infantino brand slings!!!?
(CBS) The popularity of baby slings has been on the rise over the past four years.
But, reports “Early Show” Consumer Correspondent Susan Koeppen, the Consumer Product Safety Commission says two slings are considered so dangerous they’re being pulled from the market, and parents are being told to stop using them.
Earlier this month, “The Early Show” broke the news that federal regulators were warning of possible suffocation hazards posed by baby slings — which parents put around their necks and carry their babies in.
Now, the CPSC has announced the voluntary recall of one million slings made by Infantino.
The Sling Rider and the Wendy Bellissimo are being pulled because they pose a suffocation risk, Koeppen says.
Asked by Koeppen how quickly a child could suffocate in “one these slings,” CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum responded, “In a matter of minutes.”
Tenenbaum says three children died in Infantino slings last year alone.
“You might have your baby in a sling next to you and not notice that the baby has gone into (a) position (in which he or she) cannot breathe” until it’s too late, Tenenbaum added.
That, notes Koeppen, is exactly what happened to seven-day-old Derrik Fowler during a shopping trip with his mother, Lisa Cochran.
She’d been carrying her newborn in a sling made by Infantino. “By the time I got to the car and pulled him out of the sling to put him in his car seat, he was no longer of normal color,” Cochran recalls.
Infants younger than four months are at greatest risk in slings, Koeppen points out, because their weak neck muscles mean they have no head control. An infant can curl into a “C”-shape, with the chin falling into the chest — restricting the baby’s airway.
There are no federal or voluntary safety standards for infant slings.
In a statement, Infantino says, “Safety is our No. 1 concern,” adding it “has also been working closely with the CPSC and other agencies … to develop safety standards for baby slings.”
But, observes Koeppen, that’s of little consolation to mothers such as Cochran, who says, “As a first-time mom, I had no clue I could walk into a store and pick something off the shelf that wasn’t safe.”
Consumers are being advised to stop using the recalled Infantino baby slings immediately and contact the company for a free replacement product.
To get it, take the tags off your recalled sling and send the tags to Infantiono, Koeppen says, adding, “There are three different products that you could get in return. You have a choice. There is a shopping cart carrier. There is a different type of baby carrier. There’s also an activity gym that you can receive for free.”
As for baby slings not included in the recall, Koeppen repeated parent sholdn’t use them if their infant is less than four months old.
The CPSC, Koeppen says, is also looking at all baby slings, investigating them — the ones that are on the market currently — and will be working toward mandatory federal safety standards.

Brand New – Sudden Death In Carolina
Awesome song by an awesome band 😀 Lyrics: Last night I swallowed liquor and a lighter and this morning I threw up fire. But it’s nothing new. I’ve been piecing it together and it’s got something to do with every look thrown like a knife across a crowded room. Every slow and quiet car ride I spent drinking in the backseat. Every stupid melody to every stupid song. And every stupid word that everybody’s hanging on. What difference does this difference in age make? I know how it ends… she’ll kill me quick. So call 911. I’m already dead but someone should be caught and held responsible for this bloody mess. Last night I fell asleep next to a liar and I woke up with a shiner. And it’s all that I remember from a night spent lying on my back with a view of a stone white ceiling and the back of your head. This dark and quiet bed felt like the middle of nowhere. We beat each other up just like we always do. When I’m talking to myself I’d always rather be talking to you. What difference does this difference in age make? I know how it ends… she’ll kill me quick. Call 911. I’m already dead but someone should be caught and held responsible for this bloody mess. Call homicide. Take the case to court. Her lips taste like a loaded gun and I’m her number one chalk outline on the floor. They hung her from the bridge on Monday. The gathering turned into a mob out on the lawn. They dropped her body in the river. And school and work returned to normal before long… Call 911. I’m already …
Is it safe to use a humidifier brand that has been recalled before?
Question by needhelp: Is it safe to use a humidifier brand that has been recalled before?
I’m interested to buy a humidifier called: Hunter Care-free warm mist humidifier. This specific product has been recalled due to potential fire hazard. There are 4 reports from consumers of minor property damage from water leaking to the electrical components causing fire. Accordingto the website below, the recall is for products sold at stores nationwide from September 2005 through February 2006.
http://www.lawcash.com/recalls/family-dollar-pay-civil-penalty-failure-report-hazardous-electric-blankets-recall/alert/6281.asp
it’s 2007 now and I still see the product being sold at target.com, iallergy.com and several others. Does it mean that they have corrected the problem and is it safe to buy those products now? Or are these retailers trying to sell leftover products that still have the problem?
any input will be appreciated
*** correction: I mean the product not the brand. I’d like to buy this specific product that has been recalled before. So Is it safe to buy this product knowing that this product has been recalled before ? ***

Alpo® Brand Prime Cuts In Gravy Canned Dog Food Voluntary Nationwide Recall
No Dry Purina Products Involved

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — St. Louis, Missouri, March 30, 2007 . . . Nestlé Purina PetCare Company today announced it is voluntarily recalling all sizes and varieties of its ALPO® Prime Cuts in Gravy wet dog food with specific date codes. The Company is taking this voluntary action after learning today that wheat gluten containing melamine, a substance not approved for use in food, was provided to Purina by the same company that also supplied Menu Foods. The contamination occurred in a limited production quantity at only one of Purina’s 17 pet food manufacturing facilities.
Earlier today the FDA announced the finding of melamine in products related to the March 16 Menu Foods recall, and advised Purina of the source of the contaminated supply. Purina then determined that it had received some quantity from the suspect supplier. The company proactively notified the FDA and immediately began this recall process.
Purina is confident that the contaminated wheat gluten has been isolated to this limited production quantity of ALPO Prime Cuts canned products.
The recalled 13.2-ounce and 22-ounce ALPO Prime Cuts cans and 6-, 8-, 12- and 24-can ALPO Prime Cuts Variety Packs have four-digit code dates of 7037 through 7053, followed by the plant code 1159. Those codes follow a “Best Before Feb. 2009” date. This information should be checked on the bottom of the can or the top or side of the multi-pack cartons.
Purina’s 5.3-ounce Mighty Dog® pouch products, manufactured by Menu Foods, were previously withdrawn from the market as a precaution on March 16 as part of the Menu Foods recall. ONLY Mighty Dog pouch products and specific date codes of ALPO Prime Cuts canned dog food are being recalled.
Importantly, no Purina brand dry pet foods are affected by the recall – including ALPO Prime Cuts dry. In addition, no other Purina dog food products, no Purina cat food products, Purina treat products or Purina Veterinary Diet products are included in this recall, nor have been impacted by the contaminated wheat gluten supply.
Consumers should immediately stop feeding ALPO Prime Cuts products with the above-listed date codes to their dogs and consult with a veterinarian if they have any health concerns with their pet.
Purina guarantees all of its products, and consumers can receive the full replacement value of the recalled products. Consumers can visit us at www.purina.com or call 1-800-218-5898, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. CDT, to receive more information.
Purina is fully cooperating with the FDA and made the decision to voluntarily recall this product in consultation with the FDA.
At Purina, nothing is more important to us than the health and well-being of the pets whose nutrition has been entrusted to us by their owners, and we deeply regret this unfortunate situation. We will continue to take any and all actions necessary to ensure the quality and safety of our products.

That is the first Purina product in the recall. And today my vet told me that a Science Diet special diet dry food is in the recall. That is the first dry food to be a problem in this particular recall.
