Yep. Fact check before you freak.

"The November 2011 issue of German consumer magazine koTest reported that Sophie the Giraffe should not be sold in Germany due to a violation of statutory limit values for nitrosatable substances. The test found 0.781 mg/kg, while the German Bedarfsgegenstndeverordnung BedGgstV consumer food and product standard provides for a limit of 0.1 mg/kg. Vulli initially said that another regulation applies, the EU guidelines for toys, with a limit of 1 mg/kg, and obtained a preliminary injunction of the District Court in Berlin banning publication of koTest's report. The story was removed from the magazine's website. This injunction was lifted in January 2012."

" Vulli responded by recalling Sophie the Giraffe and similar products from German retailers, and offering to exchange it with one produced on or after March 2012, which Vulli says adhere to the stricter German limit."

Didn't sound like she was freaking to me. 

Um, yeah. She was just asking if anyone had heard about a recall.

I said before she freaks. Not that she was currently in the state of freaking out. She was not freaking when she asked. I'm aware of that, thank you.
