# it's not that they think we're thick
it's that they can cover themselves from being sued if some dumbfuck is allergic and says "there's no allergy advice on the can!"

# Erm, yes - of course, I realise this, Mr Sainsbury. ;)
But would a fish allergy sufferer REALLY have a case if they collapsed foaming at the mouth after 'naively' gobbling down a can of whole fucking fish?

# I've often wondered
If we got rid of this stupid culture of passing the buck of responsibility, would all the lawyers starve and die meaning that the legal system broke down and people were simply forced to be nice to eachother and generally honest making the world a better place in which Chavs are fed into mincers to feed the third world?

# well
stuff like that is just a legal requirement. And at least it's clear, rather than the shitty 'may contain traces of nuts' ones. Why not put 'may or may not, take the risk. We don't know what crap our factory workers chuck in our food.'?

# To help, all stupid people should be given an allergy of some sort.
