Yep, lawsuit happy culture. Some of the warnings products are completely ridiculous, and even more ridiculous is that many of the warnings are probably there from a specific lawsuit. I recently learned that the stickers on fruit at grocery stores are made to be edible... I mean it makes sense, but goddam, it's such a sad commentary on humanity.
Edit: actually maybe it's not that sad that fruit stickers are edible, because any produce that isn't sold before it starts to go bad is sold/given too local farmers/ranchers for livestock. It'd be unrealistic to expect a hog farmer to peel a hundred stickers off half brown bananas. Faith in humanity not entirely lost.
