In fact if there were no health and softy regulations, I bet you most companies would make a much bigger profit, and the cost of products would plummet everywhere. |

You might be looking for other info, like how many kilos are you getting for your money, I know that from the size of the sack. what type of seed is it etc. Normally in much bigger letters. I don't bother to read the fine print like which country it comes from and warnings that those who are allergic to seeds shouldn't eat the parrot seed. I don't normally even check if its fit for human consumption because the stuff that's meant for pets usually has a picture of a pet on the container. For example I just bought some specific sunflowers with extra nutrition with different oils in them. Sure, but there is no need to read everything on the sack to see that info. Its listed separately and one of the knacks with speed reading is being able to read the right bit of text that has the info you want in it. For example a speed limit sign doesn't make me go at the speed limit, but it still ****es me off that someone wants me to obey it. That's different, you can be fined when you ignore it. You can't with the **** on the sack that suggest you use two people to carry it. And plenty are silly enough to touch what is claimed to be wet paint. It's still annoying being told to do something. You arent being told to do something with a wet paint sign, just warned that its not a great idea to sit or lean on it. It's the wimps that make silly regulations forbidding people from just getting on with what they're doing. I ignore those too. Sometimes they get into laws I ignore those too. Until you get fined.
