Dangerous Cupcakes?
Don't tell anyone please - I want to stay in business - but I broke the law today. And I did it deliberately. My illegal action involved a cupcake pillow - perhaps you can guess what it was. That's right - I removed the large, ugly tag that said: Under Penalty of Law, This Tag is Not to be Removed Except by the Consumer. I find this type of tag completely baffling. There are no special life saving instructions printed on this tag - only a statement that the materials used in making "the article" are in accordance with law. ? I think the materials in pretty much everything we sell from postcards and wind up toys to jewelry are "in accordance with law" and none of those items come with large threatening labels. If anyone can enlighten me, I'd be happy to learn the reason why cupcake pillows merit this tag . . . . .
