So do you think that people won't buy sugar because it contains sugar? Or olive oil 'coz it contains fat?

BTW, I like the 'rectal camouflage' thing :clap:

Packets of peanuts have carried the message "Warning may contain nuts" for years.

What really worries me about this is the use of the word "may" :?

Lets wrap everyone and everything up in Cotton wool and bubble wrap, remove anything sharp or fun and then if we all sit there quietly we wont hurt ourselves or anyone else and if we a very quiet we wont run the risk of offending any one, blindfolds on or course in case we look at someone funny, wouldn't want that would we! :'(

Sometimes I wish Germany had won the war, the result couldn't be much worse than it is now and I bet VW's would be cheaper.

Oh, I think it could be worse, but if we do sanitise the Human race completely, Darwin will look down and watch in disbelief as we all revert to single-celled morons. Perhaps then we could all be elected as MPs.

It is much easier to govern the crowd if it consists of brainless elements...

Wonder what would happen if soups were labelled "Contains Cretins", nuts were labelled "Contains Nitwits" and they told us what else was in sugar besides sugar, not to mention the substitute for what used to be butter in this country, i.e., "I can't believe it's not axle grease"!!!

As for McDonalds, it seems incredulous that a cow which has supplied milk and produced progeny for the nation ends up as a circular thing made of light pink slurry, the consistency of putty, which has to set on fire and served between microwaved stodge could be considered to benefit the health of the nation.

As for me, I'm just about to barbecue a steak as it's sunny in Scotland - I could label it "Suitable for eating" along with a glass of red wine!!!
