I'm sure this has been brought up before but...

Why is it that on the jar of peanut butter there is an allergy warning that says it contains peanuts?

Because of Peanut labeling laws, even something that obviously contains nuts still has to have that little line informing those with allergies. The funniest is when a package of peanuts says "MAY contain nuts". I mean, I should hope it does!

Because if you come up with a separate label for peanut butter you have to come up with a separate label for everything.

Stupid people don't deserve the goodness of peanut butter anyway.

That's what I think and everyone knows that only stupid people are allergic to peanuts.

Because baby food does not contain babies, no matter what picture is on the label.

I get mad at my girlfriend because her kid is a baby genius and she won't let him have any peanut products just in case he might be allergic. Poor little dude.

Someone would sue and win if it didn't.
