For education and discussion only. Not for commercial use.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Sara Lee Underwear is recalling Winnie the Pooh infant underwear because decorative decals can break apart, possibly causing children to choke, company officials announced Friday.

The company has not received any reports of injury, but is recalling the underwear as a precaution.

The company has notified the Consumer Product Safety Commission of the recall.

The underwear is white and has decals of Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Piglet over the script "Pooh and friends." The line, on the market since April 2001, was sold at Wal-Mart, Gabriel Brothers and other stores.

Retailers have been asked to remove the underwear from their shelves.

Customers who return the underwear will receive a full refund.

I thought my kids were bad but at least they don't eat their underwear.

Reminds me of the joke we told in elementary school:

What are you eating under there?

Under where?

EEEEEEEEEEEEEW. You're eating underwear!

If Sara Lee can be so brave, I can too. I also recall at one time or another having Pooh underwear.
