On our stroller, it says, "Remove child before folding."

REALLY? Is that necessary?

    "Do not use for drying pets." -- In the manual for a microwave oven.

    My toothpaste says "squeeze tube for best results". Thanks heavens, or I never would have gotten the toothpaste out.

    That's so awesome that the pain in my sides from laughing is worth it.

    I don't have a real one to use, but in college I had a package of mints stronger than Altoids that were called Smints. I ate one while drinking beer. I got a sharpie and wrote on the package: Warning! Do not eat with beer!

    Well that is where I am going wrong - mine does not have this label.

    Silica packets might be mistaken for seasoning in foodstuffs? =P

    What worries me is my milk chocolate that lists milk in the ingredients...then says may contain milk...
    What might they forget it in some batches? So confusing.

    Actually it might not contain nuts, peanuts are not nuts ;)

    The handwash in the bathroom says 'Suitable for Vegetarians' on it, I've always found that a bit weird.

    Is a peanut actually a nut? Or is it a Legume. Maybe that's a good label,

    You laugh, but my friend's sister ate a pack once.. She wasn't a toddler, either.

    Almond Milk. It is NAMED Almond Milk. The first ingredient in the ingredient list is ALMONDS. And it STILL has a big, bold cautionary message after the ingredient list that says: WARNING. CONTAINS ALMONDS

    Mixed Nuts. No name brand at my store. MIXED NUTS with a picture of peanuts, almonds, walnuts, etc on the cover. It is called Mixed Nuts. Ingredient list includes peanuts, walnuts, etc. And underneath the ingredient list is a big bold warning that says: CONTAINS MIXED NUTS.

    DOH!

    My new hair dryer came with a long list of warnings in the manual. My favourite by far was "Not to be used while bathing/showering. Failure to follow warnings may result in burns, electric shocks, or death."

    Well, I know you shouldn't do a Ben Gay back rub before getting intimate. Maybe it's something like that.

    Personally, if you have an allergy to nuts, and you eat something that obviously has NUTS in the name....you deserve to get taken out of the gene pool.
