It reminds me of the labels on pillows: This tag may not be removed under penalty of law except by the consumer. Some states require tags on used bedding as well.
I've always wondered why pillows had them. answer.com says this:
"Laws requiring these tags were passed in the United States to inform consumers as to whether the stuffed article they were buying contained new or recycled materials. This was and still is considered important as contaminated, recycled stuffing material could contain lice, bedbugs, or human excretions."
Well, if the tags keep out "excretions" from my pillow, I'm all for them.
yeah, but i think we all know what i'd do with it!
