Campbell's recalls 'Chunky' soup due to choking hazard

Campbell's Soup has issued a recall as of last this past week on its "Campbell's Chunky" brand of soups. No -- there is no potential food poisoning involved with this recall.

Campbell Soup Co. said that a "choking hazard" is behind the recall of its "Baked Potato with Cheddar & Bacon Bits" chunky soup product, apparently based on the size of the potato chunks.

This sounds odd to me -- hasn't this product been on the shelf for years now, and all of a sudden there is a choking hazard associated with it? Three consumers have reported minor injuries in and around the mouth, according to Campbell's.
