BonJour Cooking Torches Recalled

July 11, 2007
Meyer Corporation is recalling about 4,400 BonJour professional culinary torches. Butane fuel can leak from the torch assembly near the nozzle, posing a fire hazard.

Meyer has received four reports of fuel leakage. No injuries or property damage have been reported.

This recall involves the BonJour Professional Culinary Torch sold alone and as part of the BonJour Bain Marie Set. The torch is 7.5 inches high and has a visible fuel gauge. The base is black, and the handle is either black or brown. The torch assembly is silver-colored with the word “BonJour” printed on the side.

The torches were sold at various retailers nationwide from October 2006 through May 2007 for about $40 (when sold alone) or about $70 (when included as part of the Bain Marie Set).

The torches were manufactured in China.

Consumers should immediately stop using the torches and contact Meyer for a refund.
