the daftest thing ever seen written on a packet.

We've all heard about the peanut pack that warns 'may contain nuts' and the sleeping pills that may make you tired but I saw one today that really wants some understanding.
Lidyl are selling ladies felt slippers with a sign on saying 'Do not eat'.
Well, that's me stumped for Sunday dinner!! Teary

A condom packet labelled 3+

"Keep Frozen" on tubs of ice cream. Duuuuuuh?

Laughing out loud

Salmon: May contain Fish

Thanks Tescos! ;)

Well, as they say, every little helps!

(Stupid people.)

In the same vein I remember the story of a mum who bought her son a boomerang, amd was trying to sue the company because it 'came back' and hit him.

Always wondered what did she think she was buying her son? A pretty stick?

We have far too much of an overbearing, overprotective, compensation culture in this country!

Aaron, is it that offensive to see pointless messages on packaging?

No... Why do you ask?

Overcompensating, overprotective country wrapping us up in cotton wool and enforcing HIDEOUS little...messages...on...food packages.

If you'd read the post before mine, you'd have seen that the conversation veered away from that line of discussion. :)

I have no excuse.......except that I can't read.

Whistling nnocently

I apologise alittlebitoftheheartedly.

The daftest thing written on any packet would have to be..

Don't open this packet.

Yes I know I haven't followed the brief, I haven't SEEN a packet with that on but there will be one somewhere, and it will have been opened..

On Virgin Trains: An apple encased in plastic with 'Apple Snack' written on the front. Just in case anyone thought it was an apple fireplace.
