I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

That reminds me of "New York Texas Toast" which, I believe, is a
hanging offense in Texas.

There's a salsa _made_in_New_Jersey_. Some other brand derided them,
playing highly on "_made_in_New_Jersey_" in their commercial. The
State of New Jersey actually sued. Now the commercial says

The parent company Campbell's (since 1995) is headquartered in New

I was, of course, parodying the Pace commercial where the cowhands

"Get a rope."

The "New York Texas Toast" label was sent to me by a friend in

etiquette (like never ask someone if they're from Texas. If there are

I did laugh when 'cookie' was hog tied to the hood (if I recall correctly).

There are several hot sauces manufactured in Buda Texas that are very good.
Pace was never very good...it's a 'use it if nothing else is available'
sauce.

Oh man, I'd never get into an argument with a Texan about what makes

I liked the package of peanuts with the warning label: 'Caution!
This product processed on machines used with peanuts!'

Because about 1-in-200 are allergic to peanuts, ALL nut products not
processed on dedicated equipment must bear the warning:

MANUFACTURED ON EQUIPMENT THAT
PROCESSES PEANUT, OTHER TREE NUTS

In out leftist world, the problem is best solved by no longer offering
peanuts on airplanes.

There's actually a law in Arizona forbidding the planting of olive
trees, because some people are allergic to the pollen. Everyone
ignores the law ;-)

It is a natural human condition to get angry over our own personal
failings and incompetent actions. But an interesting difference shows
up when we compare political persuasion, right versus left. Those on
the right get angry with themselves and attempt to correct the error
of their ways. Those on the left also get angry, but look for someone
else to blame.

I liked the package of peanuts with the warning label: 'Caution!
This product processed on machines used with peanuts!'

When it comes to 'peanut' warnings my favorites are bags of peanuts
that warn they contain peanuts.

Ya think?

In this day and age of artificial flavors I suppose it could be 'fake'
peanuts but if one were allergic I'd imagine 'peanuts in there' would
be a natural first guess for a package of peanuts.

These silly ones get on there as a result of 'corporate policy' akin
to: "any food product which may contain peanut or peanut byproducts,
or may contain a non-peanut product that may have come into contact
with peanuts, peanut byproducts, or may have contacted machinery that
may have contacted peanuts or peanut byproducts, shall include the
following warning insert legal department approved warning text
prominently displayed on the label."

Well, a package of peanuts certainly qualifies and woe be to anyone
who tries to argue, though 14 layers of management, "it's obvious" to
the legal department because no one ever got sued for the inclusion of
an 'obvious' warning.


Another one is the manual for a battery powered tool. It tells you
to use a 14 AWG or heavier extension cord, when the charger only draws
230 mA.

Another all time favorite.

Nytol Sleep Aid: Warning: May cause drowsiness.

One would hope SO.

I also kind of like this practical emergency safety procedure posted
at summer camp: In case of flood, proceed uphill. In case of flash
flood proceed uphill quickly.

And another useful tip on an American Airlines packet of nuts:
Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.

I'll bet there's a policy to always include "instructions" so what
else could you say? Except, perhaps, to add: curse at near impossible
to open package... pick up spilled nuts....

But this one on a Swedish chain saw makes one wonder what law suit
inspired the warning: Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or
genitals.


You never know with the Swiss. I wonder if that's what inspired them
to create IKEA? ;-)
