As I was reading an article out of the Arizona Republic, an interesting conclusion occurred...
The article explained how food labels contain "warnings" that the product may "accidentally contain ingredients" that people may be allergic to. This is great-don't get me wrong. People need to know when there are contaminations etc. Recent laws have required this.
Many are arguing that people are beginning to ignore the warnings, because it seems they are on everything. "The Labels may be losing credibility".
Personally, I think industries are printing the possible warnings simply because they are scared about becoming a victim of the "suing spree". If their food is the cause of a person's death, they know they will be sued and even tormented by the media. So why not just post possible contaminations just to be safe, even if they know they do not exist?
Seems like the domino affect is beginning to heart innocent people. Gratefully, it seems like more are beginning to take action. The Food and Drug admin. is trying to decide weather to intervene, and manufacturers are "preparing to update its own guidelines about when foods should carry the warnings".
For now, read and follow the warnings. You never know when one may be telling the truth.
