Mmmm. Sounds tasty.

I do love that it specifies shelled walnuts. It's like one of the little warning labels for things you never think competent people would do. Hee. I shouldn't mock, but it's too much fun.

Well, actually, that was me specifying that ;-) but there's a good reason to specify that kind of thing anyway, which is that 8oz. of walnuts in the shell will yield less than 8oz. of shelled walnuts!

I did find a really good Label for the Stupid on a box of frozen pizza this week, though: it was something like "use potholders and both hands to remove pizza from oven." No, Stouffer's! I defy you with my one-handed pizza removal technique!

Hey, EVERYONE knows one hand is needed to hold open the damn stove door! UNLESS one uses a foot (and there should be warning: "check that you wear thick socks before holding the stove door open with your foot!"), but dealing with a panful of hot pizza while standing on one foot is quite a feat of dexterity ...

Quite frankly, the day I see a warning reminding me not to open the stove door with my foot won't surprise me at all.
