Undeclared Almonds.

[clayangel]

I'm skimming through a local grocery store's website looking for what I might want to pick up for dinner tonight (I'm thinking seared tuna and a salad, but salmon will do if I can't find tuna) and I see a little tab at the top of the page that says "product recalls," so, of course I must see what's being recalled. And the things that they recall products for is interesting.

Like, there's a pill that they're recalling because there are apparently some overly large pills mixed in that contain double the dose of medicine. And this one amuses me. They're recalling some hershey chocolate shell topping because it "contains undeclared almonds." I think I just love the phrase undeclared almonds. Like the chocolate snuck them into the country or something. Ooh, and I just found some salmon spread that contains undeclared eggs. Naughty mushed salmon. There's one because a pill bottle may contain the wrong pills.

Or, of course, there are the normal ones. Like some hot pockets might have bits of plastic in them or nestle quik might have bits of metal in it.

And it's interesting seeing the importance of these things. Like, bits of aluminum are only a class 2 hazard, but bits of plastic are class 1.

Maybe I'm just a massive dork, but I find this stuff both fascinating and amusing.

On another note, I sent the security off to check on that bathroom almost an hour ago. I expected them to come back by now to fill me in on what the hell's going on. Should I be worried?

That's normal?(!)

Undeclared almonds in chocolate, like they were sneaking in, is a hilarious concept. That is certainly an odd way of saying the list of ingredients should have included almonds. I shall make it a goal to use that expression in a conversation in the next day or not. More than once.

Also, plastic more or a hazard than aluminium? Strange sense of priority they have.

Is security back from that bathroom yet? ;D

Hugs from up north.

Suddenly an old National Enquirer cover story about a guy who got eaten by a toilet is surfacing from the recesses of my most soundly locked away childhood memories.
