Cupkin issued a voluntary recall of about 346,000 cups after discovering the potential for lead exposure.

The children's product-maker discovered that its 8oz and 12oz cups may cause "unacceptable exposure" to lead if the bottoms are mistreated. They noted that the liquids in the cup would not be contaminated due to the product's "double-walled" construction.
