NEW YORK (Reuters) - Dunkin Donuts LLC said on Friday it was withdrawing about 1 million Glow Sticks because of a possible choking hazard for young children.

The doughnut and coffee chain said it distributed the glow sticks free with every purchase of a dozen, 25, or 50 box of Munchkins beginning on September 24 at participating U.S. stores.

The privately held company said the sticks were not labeled properly. The toys have a cap and lanyard that pose a choking risk to children under 3, it said.

Dunkin Donuts also said it hasn't received any reports of injury.
