Description
This recall involves children's Super Cooking Sets, a 12-piece stainless steel set with miniature pots that have clear glass lids.

"ALEX" and "Super Cooking Set" are printed on the box. A red sticker labeled "unbreakable glass" is affixed to the pot lids. Cooking sets manufactured after April 1, 2006 have stainless steel lids and are not included in this recall.
