A recall that 99% won't be claimed since if you are buying butter you know it contains milk. Gotta be real dumb to think the butter is milk free.

You do realize we're talking about the same society that requires a warning label to not eat the shampoo?

What?! You can eat the shampoo? No dog food for Victor tonight!

It's the same society that just elected a fascist dictator-wannabe. No matter how many intelligent people you know, there's enough to do that.

Maybe warning labels were a mistake...

Gotta be real dumb

Well based on last Tuesday, this is a shockingly large number of people.

They’ll just put a sticker on it that says “contains milk”. This is like one of those Tesla recalls that is really just a software update done to meet federal or state requirements.

The US is the most litigious country in the world. They’re likely making sure all bases are covered just in case.

Gotta be real dumb to think the butter is milk free.

So like 50% of people then?

To be fair, the word butter is very vague. Shea butter has no milk, apple butter has no milk, etc.

But it's sold in the dairy area so no it's not vague.
