How stupid can you be?!?!?!

I have a huge tolerance for stupidity (something that kept me in a 7 year relationship, to my regret) but when I saw this a couple a weeks ago my huge tolerance disappeared in nanosecond.

This is a meat product that I love since I was a toddler. It's a  "čajna pašteta" or "Tea Pate" produced by a Croatian company. It's packaged in a plastic case. What made me see red a couple weeks ago is this white label on package of this product. It's a warning for consumers that in translation from Croatian to English means: "Casing is not edible". And than my mom informed me ( she works in a big Croatian supermarket chain store as a head of department where you can buy meat products such as hams, salami, dry salami, etc. in one piece or sliced ) that they put that same label on salamis that are put in sale in one piece.

How stupid you have to be to go and eat a plastic case in which this Pate or salami or ham is packaged?!? What give them an idea that a plastic was edible just because their favorite salami or ham or in my case this Tea Pate was packaged?  I really want to find out those people for whom this warning labels was placed in the first place.

Is it just me or is there anyone else who thinks that we as humans become increasingly dumber and dumber with every passing year? What is going to be next that is going to get this lovely label with warning that that product is not edible or is harmful in some kind of way?

I hope that this is a unique case and that is going to stop with this. Because if it's not, than I'm afraid for a humanity and society that we know.

A year and so ago I found this picture on Pinterest and it made me laugh but today it make me think about it.

I'm not judgmental person. I know that not everybody is scary smart and that not everybody has a superior intelligence. But to know that plastic wrapper or case isn't edible is a common sense and it doesn't require high IQ. I don't think about myself as a superior person because I have high above-average intelligence but I'm worried about future if we need this kinds of warnings in 2015. I certainly don't think that people should be killed because they are not smart enough by someone else's standards, criteria or opinions because we all have something to contribute to our future and future of the next generations. But I'm worried what kind of future the next generations would have if this is our future.

I hope that all this had any sense for you, people that read my humble blog ( and let me just thank you for that ). And if you ever come to Croatia buy this Tea Pate by company named "Sljeme", because it is so good with a toast and tea or coffee if you drink that. And a disclaimer for future references; I wasn't paid or sponsored by this company for writing this blog post. I just needed to write about this and get it outta my system so that maybe I could go to sleep ( it is 5:54 am June, 21st right now as I write this post ) because this was running through my mind.

Please let me know what you think about my blog or this post or anything else. I value everyone else's opinions and if I offended someone I apologize. This is just my opinions and we as a humans do have rights to have our own opinions and they don't have to be like everyone else's. And you don't have to like them but you do have to respect my right to say what I think just like everyone else have that same right. 

OK, it's time for me to go to sleep =) Good night or good morning to all of you, Oh, and happy first day of Summer.

Love,

XOXO,
