These are out of my book "Consumer Behavior" from my Consumer Behavior class...
On a hair dryer: Do not use while sleeping
On a bag of corn chips: You could be a winner! No purchase necessary! Details Inside.
On a bar of soap: Use like regular soap.
On frozen dinners: Serving suggestion: defrost
On a hotel shower cap: Fits one head.
On bread pudding: Product will be hot after heating.
On packaging for iron: Do not iron clothes on body.
On sleep aid: Warning: May cause drowsiness.
On jar of peanuts: Warning: Contains nuts.
On a packet of nuts: Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.
On Christmas lights: For indoor and outdoor use only.
Then there's always the badly translated warnings...
On a Korean kitchen knife: Warning: Keep out of children.
On a Japanese food processor: Not to be used for the other use.
And if that's not enough to cover company's asses, here are a few more I am suggesting:
On credit cards: Warning: May cause increased expenditures
On Alcoholic Drinks: Product will get you mashed.
On a set of speakers: Blasting techno or rap will not make you look cool.
On Crisco: Covers one bed.

In Cuba there's no label or print whatsoever on the toothpaste tubes. Since there's only one brand (as a result of the planned economy) the makers didn't think it was necessary to inform the buyers of the contents, since everyone knows it's toothpaste. Quite minimalistic.
PS. Yes, it's "crime never pays" (don't know what I was thinking). And, the whole post comment section looks quite wacky in Safari.
