  • peak H&S panic period

    A pal of mine used to work in Sainsburys, in the fruit and veg section.
    during an international football event (Euros or World Cup), the lettuce was wrapped in a football print cellophane for (?)reasons(?).
    Someone complained to him "What if my son thinks it's a real football? He might eat it and choke"
    Years later I am still baffled by the concept of being worried your child might confuse FOOD for a FOOTBALL and try to eat the FOOTBALL and choke, because it is actually FOOD.
