Yeah i agree, it's common sense, but i guess it's for people who have never had a poptart!?!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Do we really need instructions on how to wash our hair!?

Personally, I blame lawyers!. Someone thought they needed to wash their insides, drank it, hurt themselves, and went out to find a lawyer who would help them sue Prell because it doesn't say on the bottle to not ingest!.

Same with PopTarts!. Someone tried to warm one up using an acetalyne torch, set their kitchen on fire, and found some lawyer greedy enough to sue!. I'm sure there's also some mention on the PopTart box that the product may be hot after coming out of a microwave or toaster!.!.!.!. Same thing: someone took it out of the toaster, popped it into their mouth, burned the roof of their mouth on the "tasty filling" and "lawyered up" to sue for damages!.

I haven't looked -- but I will -- but I imagine there are instructions on my standard, screw-in lightbulbs that say "don't wet your fingers and stick them into the socket while the switch is on!." Perhaps it'll advise to call the power company to turn off power to your house prior to installation!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Unfortunately they have to put that one there!. Or like everyone says, some stupid person will sue the company!. It's like that with most everything!.!.!.even in pharmacy (I'm a technician)!. If they are prescribed a suppository, we have to put to insert in the rectum, or there just might be some stupid person out there who will swallow it, even though its a suppository not a pill!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I hate to ask, but what is a poptart!?! I honestly have never heard of such a thing! I thought somebody was joking about a specific "celebrity" person thought to be a "tart" who sings pop!.!.!. OK, so I am out of the loop!. I should crawl back into my pig sty!.!.!. >grunt! grunt! oink! oink!<

But!.!.!. if I bought one, would I need instructions!? Is it like the cigarette lighter with the "this product gets hot" sticker because some jerk was playing with a lighter in his pocket and set fire to his vitals!? Or the "this product my be hot" on cups of coffee following the McCoffee lawsuit!.!.!.!? All ways of covering your backs folks! Even for tarts!!!! LOL!

Oh, yes, and remember publishing "how to boil an egg" helped make Delia Smith into a millionairess!.!.!. Apparently half the population were in the dark about that too! LOL! It all comes from government directives making a science out of an art and not teaching (the love of) cooking in schools any more!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Lawsuits are filed all the time by stupid people or those looking to make a buck!. Remember Stella with the McDonald's coffee!? There's the Darwin awards too, "celebrating" people who do incredibly stupid things, causing their deaths!. Darwin refers to the fact that these people will no longer contribute to the gene pool!.
