This beats all....


I just bought a jar of peanut butter. Just peanut butter, -- not the kind that's homogenized and blended with oils and sugars and other nuts.

Ingredients: Peanuts
Allergy Info: May contain peanuts.

Now just what the,......?

Bought a cup of coffee lately with a warning that, "contents may be hot"?

Like reminding us not to drink bleach.

I have the hardest time believing that the public is really this idiotic, and when they make one of their idiotic mistakes, they become litigeous self righteous money mongers,....yes, a few million bucks will cover the burn I got from drinking the hot cup of coffee I ordered when I didn't really think it was hot and accidentally, through my own fault, spilled some on my lap.

Take some friggin' responsibility, combine with common sense,....either that or remove the labels and add chlorine to the gene pool.

Exactly. These companies have to put up these idiotic warnings to cover their asses when someone tries to sue them because they didn't know. This, my friends, is America.

Food labels sometimes just don't make sense. My bag of tilapia, Ingredients: Farm Raised Tilapia. Warning: Contains Fish. No way!

Also, I buy vegetables with no salt or sugar added (canned variety), and it says "not a low calorie food" on the back. Hmmmm...I believe it is. FDA makes any product that says no sugar added say that because many companies just add sugar alcohols...but there are none in vegetables obviously lol makes no sense!
