## Retailer(s)

Starbucks stores in the United States, Canada and Taiwan sold the recalled cup,s from April 2003 through May 2003, for approximately $7 (U.S.).

## Description

The tumbler cup is constructed of translucent plastic in the shape of a bear with the words "Bearista™ Bear" printed on the front. The cup was sold in both blue and green. The cup has a screw-on lid in the shape of a bear's head, from which a soft flexible straw protrudes. The product's lid can rotate such that the straw attachment can be bent (closed) to prevent liquid from leaking out.
