Put ’Em in Your Mouth and Suck ’Em

The world of baby merchandise is vast and mysterious. Some of the more mysterious labels we’ve seen have been on items of clothing. Remember, these are intended for infants under three months old—basically eating, excreting and sleeping machines:

  • DO NOT TUMBLE-DRY
  • NOT INTENDED FOR SLEEP WEAR

But the most amusing packaging is easily this plastic bag from Tesco’s “My Baby” range. The graphic itself is fairly disturbing, like something out of the last scenes of Close Encounters:

My baby

But the best bit is on the back, where someone should really have considered setting off the brand name in capitals, italics, or bold:

My baby's large cotton wool balls.
