Health warning labels have adorned cigarette packages since 1966,

That's almost 50 years!

I remember back in the day when soda cans had an artificial sweetener warning on it: stating "this product is known to cause cancer in laboratory test animals."

Some just don't care enough until they get sick.

I try my best..........I'm one of the few who prefers a bit of sugar instead of artificial products. Also, I recently heard that sugar doesn't spoil............If true, it must have antimicrobial and/or antibacterial properties. Interesting, for sure. I'd be researching it, if I were a scientist.

"Granulated sugar does not spoil, but if it gets damp it will likely cake up or get lumpy. If it does, it can simply be pulverized again until it regains its granulated texture. Granulated sugar can be found in varying textures, coarser or finer. "Castor/caster sugar" is a finer granulation than what is commonly sold as table sugar in the U.S. and is more closely equivalent to our super fine or berry sugar."

If my sugar gets lumpy I simply use a dinner fork to take out the lumps. I've also been known to put it in a blender for a few seconds to remove lumps. However, you have to be careful; the longer you blend the sugar the finer it will be.

Not sure what your post says other than the title, way too small for these old eyes.

As for heeding warnings? I think more specificity of the products is needed for me to be able to answer that one.

AnikaBrodie: Thanks for the info!

I heed the warning on frozen pizza to not eat it unbaked and on lemon cleaner to not eat it at all.

I don't need the warnings on electrical appliances about using in the tub or underwater. Why I would ever need to make toast in the bathtub I will never know.

The warning labels on pillows and mattresses that can't be removed under penalty of law...I don't understand why and prolly should go to jail cause I always remove them. Please don't rat me out .

I have a blow dryer that warned me not to use it on unconscious people

SO, if anyone comes to my home and collapses, they are going by ambulance, to the ER, looking just the way they look!

I will not wash and style their hair, before getting them to the hospital. People had better come to my home, looking good!

Maybe you should include that warning on the invitation.
