Ah. I thought it read "may cause consumption"

Don't start me off on 'serving suggestions' :lol:

Why the feck does anything edible have to come with a serving suggestion these days?

I mean I bought a multiseeded batch loaf (Mmmm!) the other day. The cover showed the bread, a few slices tipped over on a plate with some small shovels of grain...

Then I saw the "serving suggestion" text right there. I mean, for the love of God, is that necessary? I thought I'd use it to make some sandwiches, but no! Looking at some tipped over slices is a fecking way better idea!!

It really is taking the absolute p*ss. I remember once buying some frozen potato wedge things (you know basic keep in the freezer for emergency type gubbins) and on the cover was several cooked wedges falling off a baking tray to a plate. Again with this bloody pointless message!

No sh*t, Sherlock!? Damn, I thought I had to eat it frozen and still in the packet!

To be fair, I've always been irritated by the need food manufacturers seem to have to do this :-)

I think the sleep deprevation just galvanized the need to rant about it :lol:
