Exploding frying pans recalled


About 8,700 frying pans sold through America's Home Shopping Network are being recalled because they can "explode" while in use, according to U.S. safety regulators.

Two consumers have been burned from hot oil and there have also been eight reports of property damage involving the frying pans, the Davenport, Iowa-based Innova reported to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
