The United States Consumer Products Safety Commission has announced that Target has issued a recall notice for nearly 5 million Threshold scented candles sold exclusively at Target.  According to the recall report, Target received 137 reports of “the candle jar breaking or cracking during use,” with six injuries reported, including “lacerations and severe burns.”

The candles, which came in various scents like Crackling Wooden 3-Wick Acai Berry and Spruce, and Apple Blossom and Breeze, sold for between $3 and $20 nationwide and online at target.com from August 2019 through March 2023.

The Top 7 Least Likely Baby Names Parents Will Choose

• "Snort"

  While it has a pleasant sound, parents seem leaning away from unisex or gender-neutral names like “Pat,” “Gizmo,” or in this case, “Snort.”

• "Pomegranate"

  While Gweneth Paltrow naming her daughter “Apple” inspired many to name their children after fruit, “Pomegranate” is not one that’s taken off. However, it looks like “Jabuticaba” and “Rambutan” may be climbing up the popularity list.

• "Assassination"

  This doesn’t make a good baby name for the same obvious reason I mentioned earlier, it’s commonly misspelled. Many people leave out at least one “S” which could cause some issues for anyone with that name, especially those who may serve in public office. You can’t even shorten it.

• "Baby"

  This name gained prominence in the late 1980s, especially among doctors who would punish their children by making them sit in a corner. Many came to the realization that it was like naming a dog “dog” or a cat “cat.”

• "Spackle"

  All would agree that names like “Grout,” “Caulk,” and other crack fillers are obviously desirable monikers for one’s offspring. However, “Spackle” is considerably less popular because it rhymes with the somewhat unpopular candy bar “Krackel.”

• "Zagnut"

  Another victim of the unpopular candy bar curse, “Zagnut,” has become one of the least popular baby names in recent years.

• "Fallopian"

  Many parents balk at naming their baby “Fallopian” claiming it sounds too ethnic. However, “Fallopina” is gaining popularity thanks to the well-liked family vacation destination “Fallopia.”
