Week 13 Entries

There were many excellent entries for Week 13 of our Proposition 65 Contest, and as a result, judging was again a challenge. The winner is Jamey Bower’s priceless “duh!” moment with the bag of pecan wood chips and the required warning. Yes, indeed pecan wood chips contain wood (dust) and are intended to be burned. Apparently enjoying a wood burning fire is just another of the many activities in California that cause cancer and birth defects.

In a pickle about what to bring to the office Thanksgiving pot luck? According to the state of California, #prop65 you could be bringing cancer causing food if you chose to bring anything that is pickled, like pepercinins for your salad. They add so much flavor, though! @californiapolicy #prop65Contest

Great day for grilling and football. Thank goodness this Prop65 warning let me know that wood chips might contain wood and that fires create smoke! @calpolicycenter #Prop65Contest pic.twitter.com/1BZBAdopVF
