From the picture's description:
Every home should have a choke tester to check if toys and other objects are safe for baby play.
However, commercial choke testers can be complicated to find, expensive, and too small to be effective.
Did you know you already have a frugal baby choke tester in your home? (No, I don't mean the baby...)
How about an empty toilet paper tube!?
Commercial choke testers are made to gov't. regulation size of 3.5 cm (1 3/8") in diameter.
Your ordinary toilet paper tube is 4.5 cm (1 6/8") in diameter.
However, the Consumer Products Safety Commission in the U.S. has reported many deaths of babies and children who have choked on objects slightly larger than 3.5 cm (1 3/8") in diameter.
Any toy or object in your home that fits inside this toilet paper tube can be a choking hazard to your baby or child.

This was obviously taken before people started suing sucker companies for choking their babies to death!
