沃尔玛召回约448万把金属丝烧烤刷：CPSC警告刷毛脱落可粘附食物致误吞
华盛顿10月1日——据美国消费品安全委员会（CPSC）10月1日发布的召回警报（召回编号27-010），沃尔玛召回约4,477,655把Expert Grill金属丝烧烤刷。CPSC表示，细金属刷毛可能从刷体脱落、粘在烤架或烤制食物上，被人误吞后可能造成内伤甚至需要手术。截至公告日，尚无事故或伤害报告。
涉事产品包括五种型号：EX5607031616002、EX5607031616003、XG1310700206、XG1136178597003与XG1410700124，涵盖长柄带刮刀烧烤刷、21英寸三头刷、10件套烧烤工具组等，配黑色塑料或不锈钢手柄，部分带金属刮片。产品于2021年1月至2026年8月在沃尔玛门店与官网售出，售价1至28美元。
CPSC要求消费者立即停用，并联系沃尔玛办理全额退款或店内抵用额，可退回门店或按公告方式处理。《今日美国》在10月2日的跟进报道中同样建议，烧烤季虽已结束，仍应检查家中烧烤工具是否在召回之列。
替代工具方面，CPSC在多次召回通告中提示，金属丝刷的替代品包括尼龙刷、盘绕式不锈钢刷（无散丝设计）与烤架石。无论使用哪种工具，每次烧烤后都应检查烤架表面有无残留异物再放食物；家中有幼儿与老人的家庭，更应把这类「小概率、大伤害」的老旧厨房工具纳入换季清查清单。

Walmart Recalls About 4.48 Million Metal Wire Grill Brushes; CPSC Warns Bristles Can Stick to Food
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1 — Walmart is recalling about 4,477,655 Expert Grill metal wire bristle grill brushes, according to a recall alert issued Oct. 1 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (recall number 27-010). The CPSC said small metal wire bristles can detach from the brushes and stick to the grill or to cooked food, posing an ingestion hazard that could require surgery if swallowed. As of the announcement, no incidents or injuries had been reported.
The recall covers five models — EX5607031616002, EX5607031616003, XG1310700206, XG1136178597003 and XG1410700124 — including long-handle brushes with scrapers, a 21-inch three-head brush and a 10-piece grilling tool set, with black plastic or stainless-steel handles. They were sold at Walmart stores and on its website from January 2021 through August 2026 for between $1 and $28.
The CPSC urges customers to stop using the brushes and contact Walmart for a full refund or credit, returning them to a store or discarding them as directed. USA Today, in an Oct. 2 follow-up, advised readers to double-check their grilling tools even though barbecue season has ended.
On alternatives, the CPSC has noted in repeated recall guidance that wire-bristle brushes can be replaced with nylon brushes, coiled stainless brushes with no loose bristles, or grill stones. Whatever the tool, the grate surface should be checked for residue before food goes on. For households with young children and elderly members, aging kitchen tools in this 'low probability, high harm' category belong on the seasonal clean-out checklist.
