Now, doctors say there is only one way for the grill to exit. "Once they X-rayed it, they said they saw it in his stomach (and) that it should pass in one to three days," said Dawn Tedesco. "But now we're going on the third day and still no grill, so I'm a little concerned about what's going to happen." The grill came with a warning, advising parents to supervise children under the age of 12. The American Dental Association said the grills present other hazards because they can store bacteria.
