Also... “WARNING: Hot Coffee is hot!”

is a ridiculous comparison. Hot coffee being hot is an obvious fact that shouldn’t require any warning, since it is common knowledge. Diacetyl used in artificial butter causing lung disease due to repeated exposure is certainly not common knowledge.

It is not. It is EXACTLY the same thing. Repeated self induced over exposure is the fault here. Or do you propose that every bottle of water in the United States has the following warning printed on the label: WARNING: Over use of this product can produce a toxic reaction that may lead to physical harm or even death!

Water poisoning happens FAR more often, and often proves fatal.

We MUST get away from this 'It isn't my fault..' mentality - he did this to himself, he deserves nothing, the company is not at fault. He ate the damn things twice a day for 10 years - find me someone who thinks this is a reasonable use of this product.
