    Default Allergy advice...

    ...straight to the point.

    It says on the tin, "In case you haven't already worked it out this product contains fish."

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Lol Rik, well I suppose you could say at least they had a sense of humour about the uselessly (but scarily necessary) obvious warning, even if it was a sarcastic one.

    Couldn't resist ... here are some more obvious and humourous warnings / advice labels - found from around the web :

    Hershey's Almond Bar
    Warning: May contain traces of nuts.

    Washing Machine
    DO NOT put any person in this washer.

    Stridex Foaming Face Wash
    May contain foam.

    Zantac 75
    Do not take if allergic to Zantac.

    Sleeping Pills
    Warning: May cause drowsiness.

    Christmas Lights
    Warning: For indoor or outdoor use only.

    Komatsu Floodlight
    This floodlight is capable of illuminating large areas, even in the dark.

    Mattress
    Warning: Do not attempt to swallow.

    Hair Dryer
    Warning: Do not use while sleeping.

    American Airlines Peanuts
    Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.

    Nabisco Easy Cheese
    For best results, remove cap.

    Heinz Ketchup
    Instructions: Put on food.

    500-piece puzzle:
    Some assembly required.

    Bag of Fritos:
    You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.

    Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: (printed on bottom of the box)
    Do not turn upside down.

    Japanese food processor:
    Not to be used for the other use.

    New Zealand insect spray:
    This product not tested on animals.

    A frisbee
    Warning: May contain small parts.

    Portable stroller
    Caution: Remove infant before folding for storage.

    Sign at a railroad station
    Beware! To touch these wires is instant death. Anyone found doing so will be prosecuted.

    Bus Stop
    No stopping or standing.

    Espresso Kettle
    The appliance is switched on by setting the on/off switch to the 'on' position.

    Road Sign
    Caution water on road during rain.

    Bottle of bathtub cleaner
    For best results, start with clean bathtub before use.

    Toilet on display in shop
    Please do not use. Demo only. Thank you.

    Don't know how accurate/true these are, but they give you a giggle ...

    ... and two from my own fridge/cupboard:

    Homebrand Tasty Cheese
    Contains: milk.

    Kraft Peanut Spread
    Allergen Statement: contains peanuts.

    My favourite (in this sort of genre) is a sign that states "Warning this sign has sharp edges", says it all really.

    Thanks for the thread Rik.

    Regards

    Su
