To be fair, you do get a bit of a boy who cried wolf situation going on with those warnings. I work with several chemicals where the SDS says that any skin exposure requires you to immediately go to a hospital. In reality, it's literally just an acid which has no health effects other than possible burns and from my experience you basically need to soak your hands in it for half an hour straight before you start risking burns.

I do feel that even for that acid, that should be a pretty good indicator that you shouldn't be eating anything that has a warning like that without doing some pretty serious research from pretty credible sources.
