New Port Sales All-Gloo Craft Glue
The notice asks people to return it — see below for how.
Why this is on The Recall Registry: This is a consumable product recalled for what is inside it. It was found to contain a drug or chemical that is not on the label. That is different from an allergen or a contamination scare: anyone taking it has been taking a substance nobody prescribed, in an unknown dose, and it can interact with medication they are already on. Follow the agency notice rather than judging it by how the product looks.
What’s wrong
The glue contains methanol and poses a poisoning hazard to young children if ingested. The packaging is not child-resistant as required by the Poisoning Prevention Packaging Act.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
