“Do not eat”-stickers.
At HEB I saw “Water melon filet” for sale.
Cryptocurrency as an investment
Labels like “Caution hot” on coffee cups
“Tactical” products and brain “vitamins”
Warnings and instructions.
Warnings, yes. Instructions, no. Though, people are often stupid for not reading the instructions.
Warnings, yes.
Some.
- use like soap (on soap)
- do not use like telephone (on an iron)
Warning labels that say shit like “Contains: Milk” on a carton of milk.
Egg carton that says “Contains Egss”, like yeah, I sure hope so
‘Caution: Hot’ on coffee.
Did you hear about the butter recall for that?
C’mon nowadays you can market anything as anything, and you’re never quite sure what’s in there! :p
I hate to be “that guy” but in theee cases, it just makes more sense to have some extraneous labeling rather than have special clauses in the regulation dictating when it’s obvious enough that the label can be omitted.
Keeping the rules as simple as possible reduces the chances of loopholes and ambiguity, at the expense of sometimes resulting in things like a jar of peanut butter stating “contains peanuts” on the label.
It makes no sense and it’s a side effect of an over litigious society.
It only makes no sense until you stop and consider how to define and implement a better rule, when the only real benefit would be to prevent people snarking about milk having a “contains milk” labeling.
Labeling for ingredients and possible cross contamination concerns doesn’t require that milk warns about milk.
Do you think that someone sits down and makes a list of all items that need to be labeled as containing X, which is then updated each time a new food or recipe hits the store shelves?
Or is it more likely that regulators simply state that all foods for human consumption containing more than some percent by weight of X must be labeled as containing X?
If your goal is to ensure that consumers are alerted to certain ingredients for allergy or other purposes, you care very much about a product not getting labeled properly, and you don’t really care if something obvious gets the label.
I’m not really sure why this is so hard to grasp…
Proprietary software.
Genuinely: steam. “I couldn’t figure out how to download an exe and double click on it” is pretty dumb
How bout you’re pretty fucking dumb
In what sense?

Lemmy moment.
He exists because his parents had sex. Having sex is stupid now?
At least they aren’t packaged each with the plastic wrap.
I do not know if that is better or worse, but that is something definitely.
Definitely worse-- Japan has a huge problem with waste, and a ton of that is because of their culture around packaging things.
I’ve noticed this and I’d like to learn more about it. I’ve always appreciated the careful thought they put into packages or containers… But does it gotta be plastic?! Agh.
haiii turkish person :3 meraba

They would go bad instantly. I would assume these would be only suitable for banana bread. Reminds me of prechopped veggies that are way overpriced.
Both these bananas and the pre-chopped veggies are nice for people with disabilities.
Are there more people with disabilities, or more stupid people?
You may not think it’s not popular and a waste,but that’s because the people who need and buy these items are generally doing their shopping when you’re at school/work.
I do not. I’m just asking if there are more people with disabilities, or more stupid people?

Please stop with justifying things that are terrible for people and the world. If these items are needed for people with disabilities, you don’t take a natural container, remove it and cover it in plastic. The solution would be to create something that is created once and does the job required indefinitely.
Oh that makes more sense. But they should wrap the bananas individually so they don’t brown as quick
Edit: wait, if someone with a disability can’t peel a banana, how will they open this package?

I think you’re coming to a realization.
