    Yep, that is exactly what happened with the CA cancer warnings. Got cancer warnings on basically everything now because it’s easier to just mark it than attempt to do anything else.

      Exactly. I am strongly in favor of more stringent food handling and labelling guidelines, but labelling alone leads to abuse, misuse, and dilution. We need some concrete food safety regulations that take into account the entire supply line, preventing both accidental and deliberate contamination with major allergens.
