Shrek Glasses Recalled Due to Cadmium Risk

Shrek Forever After 3D” glasses

If you bought these “Shrek Forever After 3D” glasses at McDonald’s – millions of you did – stop using them immediately. Visit www.mcdonalds.com/glasses for additional instructions on how to obtain a full refund.

The glasses contain low-levels of cadmium. Certain drinking glasses were found to have cadmium that was slightly above a highly protective level that is being developed by our agency. The company has stepped up to do the right thing.

The glasses have far less cadmium content and potential for exposure than the children’s metal jewelry that CPSC has previously recalled.
