It is as confusing as the parka I just bought which has a label that says:" Do not wash or dry clean"...(?)

...what to do...just burn it? How sad....proofreaders/quality control needs watchdogs! Did you write that company? I always contact the company when I see/read errors....love to wipe their faces in their messes!

Definitely seems like a 'translation issue' on the packaging - especially since it's identical to the one removed. As someone else mentioned - it is the world in which we now live. Sad.

Labels are funny sometimes. I got a new shirt and the washing instructions on the tag said "Wash this when dirty".

If it was made in China, I'd still worry about it. just keep an eye on it.
