Don Speekingleesh says March 9, 2008 at 8:43 pm Tesco’s version of Weetabix has a warning about containing wheat, even though it’s called something like: “Tesco Wheat Biscuts. Made from 100% pure wheat.”
GiveItSocks says March 10, 2008 at 9:52 am I have to agree with Laura on this. Anything that helps not getting sued by so called “dumb” people it’s worth a large sign like that.

So how exactly does a sign contain nuts?
