Not-so-kind warnings
On Dodo Seafood products:
'Re-cook' before eating.
(zZ Why do they bother to cook when making the products then???)
On vending machines:
'Also contains other products'
(i never dare to try my luck on such...hard to get what you want...)
On a recently invented super-spicy breed of chilli:
Warning: May danger your life (or whatever that is, never seen it before.Scary...)
On some pillow packaging or whatever: This plastic is not a toy. Discard off after opening.
(zZ Parents should know better what to do...)

Some 'real' ones:

Actual Label Instructions on consumer goods:
On Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping.
(Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)
On a bag of Fritos:You could be a winner! No purchase necessary.
Details inside. (The shoplifter special!)
On a bar of Dial soap: Directions: Use like regular soap.
(and that would be how?)

(But it's *just* a suggestion!)
On a hotel provided shower cap in a box: Fits one head. (really?)

turn upside down. (Too late! You lose!)
On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: Product will be hot after heating.
(Are you sure??? Let's experiment.)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothes on body.
(But wouldn't that save more time?)
On Boot's Children's cough medicine: Do not drive car or operate machinery.
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction incidents if we
just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)
On Nytol sleep aid: Warning: may cause drowsiness. (One would hope!)
On a string of Chinese-made Christmas lights: For indoor or outdoor
use only. (As opposed to use in outer space?)
On a Japanese food processor: Not to be used for the other use.
(Now I'm curious.)

(geez, I didn't know that?)
On a Swedish chainsaw: Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands

(Geez, really! Thanks for warning me before I play the game!)

"phenylketonurics: contains phenylalanine"
on soda bottles.
I'm pretty sure the phenurics (is that what you call someone with phenylkblahblahblah?) already know they shouldn't drink soda....but I'm sure all three of them are very happy to know that soda companies have their best interests at heart. And why doesn't any other food have this warning? Phenurics have a huge long list of stuff they aren't allowed to eat, yet soda is the only food that cares enough to warn them.
And what is phenylalanine? Should everyone be worried about it? Does it cause flipper babies or something?

Well, on some tv dinners, it says on the back of it to not remove the plastic or something like that before putting it in the microwave. Another one I've heard is about a cd rack. It said "don't use it as a ladder". Another one I've heard is a blowdryer. I forgot what exactly it was about. The person above me about the dryer was what I was thinking of. "Do not sleep with it on". Who would do that? Some products say "caution: hot". and you're thinking "well, duh". But they have to put warnings like that on products, even if it's stupid, to avoid a lawsuit. These days, some people will try to sue somebody for something silly to try to get money. And they will say, well the product didn't warn us about it. When you just gotta use common sense, and that will tell you.

I am sure I know something else better but I can't think of it right now, except on the pillows and so forth, the tags, 'Do not remove" and something about being illegal in doing so.
If I remember of something worse, I may come back and say it.

On frozen dinners I get from the grocery store that say something like "eat only cooked". How stupid is that.
