The label can cause cancer in California.

Why doesn't California just put out a blanket statement that anything
can cause cancer but only in California. :-)


Please point out a single example of a warning label that doesn't
apply to a known toxin. No anecdotal evidence allowed, you must show
that the chemical (or chemical residue) being warned about is not part
of the labelled item.

(my only concern with the warning labels is the 'cried wolf' syndrome
vis-a-vis extremely low concentration levels).


Bradykinin is a physiological substance generated in everyone's body.
Nevertheless, I distinctly recall a cancer warning label on a bottle of
the peptide we bought from Sigma. However, right now the MSDS for this
nonapeptide says (apparently someone pointed it out to them):
California Prop. 65 Components
This product does not contain any chemicals known to State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects, or any other reproductive harm.
