Allergy warnings on products that are very clearly are made of potential allergens, such as a peanut allergen warning on a jar of peanut butter.
The problem with this was expalined a while back when Costco had to recall butter because the packaging didn't say it contained milk. Sure someone who's deathly allergic to it will be careful, but these lists are more or less blindly get inputted into other systems. You'd be surprised how many businesses buy from Costco in bulk.
