So what is this thing in a can that must be kept neither too hot nor too cold? What is this thing in a can that shouldn't be exposed to water for too long?
Why, it's shaving cream! Shave gel, actually. Perhaps you can dunk shaving cream in water.
Here's another fun one.
WARNING: Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under six.
Under six what? I have a thought, but it's morbid. At any rate, these are vitamins.
My bottle of soda notes that it contains phenylalanine.
My can of all manner of crunchy nuts says that the contents were manufactured on equipment that processes other tree nuts.
My moisturizer is for external use only. Keep out of eyes. Rinse with water to remove. Stop use and ask a doctor if rash or irritation develops and lasts. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.
Some of these things take me back to childhood where you had to be really sick in order to allowed to be sick. And it had to really hurt if you were going to say it really hurt.
I can't imagine going to my mom or dad and saying, "Oh no! I swallowed some moisturizer!" I can't imagine that at all. Then again, they wouldn't let me throw the can of shaving cream/gel into the fire. So they were very conscious of some things. It makes me wonder who reads the labels and if anyone takes it seriously. Were your child to lick his or her hand after being moisturized would you call the Poison Control Squad?
I'm betting that you wouldn't. If you would, however, do write to me. I have many questions to ask you.
