Must not fail to tell people the obvious
Lidl has recalled some of its yoghurt and peanuts because the packets don't warn customers that they contain milk and nuts.
The German low-cost supermarket chain has taken the eight-pack of Milbona Fruit Yoghurt and Alesto Honey Peanuts off its shelves in the UK. People who have bought the items have been asked to return them to their nearest store to get refunded.
A statement from Lidl said: 'Lidl UK is recalling Milbona Fruit Yoghurt, 8 x 125g, Use by Date 18.08.16 only, due to milk not being declared in English on a small number of items.
'Lidl UK is recalling Alesto Honey Peanuts, 200g, Best Before Date 02.2017 only, due to peanuts not being declared in English on a small number of packets.'
The Food Standards Agency said that failure to warn customers in English 'makes the product a possible health risk to anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk or its constituents.'

But they have the word Peanuts written in big letters across the front of the packet, with a picture of peanuts as well. How could anyone not know the packet contains peanuts? To say they also have to write peanuts in fine print under ingredients is a bit ridiculous.

Let's go hunting! It's open season on birds.
In my local supermarket here in Brisbane I bought a packet of frozen whiting which bore the warning: "Allergen alert: contains fish."

Malcolm Smith. More dumb warning labels just look up on dumb warning labels it gets rediculous
Have we entered a phase in society where no one is willing to accept responsibility for the products they purchase when the possible allergen is in the name of the product?
