Contigo water bottles for kids recalled due to choking hazard

Silicone spout can detach

(CNN) - Millions of Contigo Kids Cleanable Water Bottles have been recalled because a silicone spout can detach and pose a choking hazard for children, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission stated Tuesday.

Contigo, a Chicago-based company, has received 149 complaints, including 18 incidents in which the spout was discovered in a child's mouth. No injuries had occurred as of Tuesday...
Does the manufacturer have any health license? How come that they were able to sell hazardous water bottles for KIDS?

Good thing no serious injury was reported. Yet this manufacturer and company behind this product must be well screened. It should pass the ISO audit to ensure safety and protection.
