It is up to us, as consumers, to actually read those labels. We can take nothing for granted. The National Electronic Injury Surveillance System found 43 cases of similar injuries between 2002 and 2014.

So, it is not often this type of injury occurs – but it is one to be aware of in any case. A sharp bristle could end up puncturing your digestive tract and cause a serious infection.
Please spread the word to your family and friends. We all deserve a happy and safe grilling season!
