That's an excellent question, Morse.

You should call the 1-800 number on the bottle and ask. Tell me what they say.

....damn good thing I called and got the Pakastani Help Line...

word is to "take it out" before giving it a good spray and buff...

they also said not to use steel wool on 'floaters'....

thank God for the freedom of information act...

We have a robot in a module at work. It's covered in stickers telling us:

"Do not operate with guards open. Could lead to crushed limbs or death"

And on the electrical cabinet:

"Do not open. Danger of death."

It kills me!

Warning on box of ammunition:

Warning: Potentially fatal if not used per manufacturers instructions.

I say, good thing they mention that!

Good point. Lord knows they're dangerous enough using them the right way!

Not a warning...

On the side of the bottle of "This Water" bought recently, it proclaimed proudly:

"Only made with Proper Fruits"

So, the Strawberry and Apple one must have had no strawberry or apple in, as neither is a Proper Fruit (they are so called False Fruits). Banana's are classed as a herb...so where does that leave their banana one? I bought Mango and Blueberry. I felt safe with that one.
