Vegetable Choppers Sold at Sam?s Club Recalled

By Chrissie Cole

Pedrini Pro Chop Professional Choppers have been recalled by Lifetime Brands because pieces of the metal blades can break off during use and fall into food being prepared by the chopper, posing a hazard to users.

The company has received three reports of the chopper's blade breaking off, including one report of a consumer suffering cuts to the mouth from chewing food containing one of the broken blades.

The recall involves the Pedrini Prop Chopper with model number 5061050 and UPC 024131114849. The choppers were sold at Sam's Club locations nationwide.

Consumers should stop using the recalled items and return them to any Sam's Club location for a free refund.
