Question: are dum dums a choking hazard?
Answer: Plus lollipops are a choking hazard. “And Dum Dums are the worst because the head of the lollipop is so small it could actually fit into a child's airway,” McPeak said. (Of course, parents have to be alert with lots of foods–baby carrots can be a choking hazard too for children younger than age 4 or 5.)
