    We had a melon salad on Sunday - Melon, Toms, Cucumber, Goats Cheese - and it was damned good.

      I read that as... "Melon, Toms, Cucumber, Goats, Cheese - and it was damned good." I needed to read it again to realize it wasn't goats and cheese. :)

      It was broke, so I fixed it.

          No, the warning is correct. Peanuts are legumes[^], not nuts. If there were only peanuts, the warning would not be needed.

            A co-worker is allergic to tree nuts, not ground nuts (such as peanuts), So, there IS a significant difference...

              I had a packet of Walnuts and Almonds with the disclaimer: May contain sunflower seeds. :confused:

                Walkers Crisps should put a "may contain Crisps" warning on their packets.

                    Code Project Lounge: May contain nuts

                    You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

                          Would that politically correct.

                          As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.
