Product contains bacteria, microbes, and other non-food items. May cause serious illness or death if consumed." This does not mean that the product is 'toxic'. What it means is that it is NOT a BEVERAGE! We are aware that the identity of the product contains the word 'Tea' and that it is packaged in what may be view as a beverage bottle. We elected to use extraordinary cautious language to be as instructive as necessary. It is not a dangerous product it is simply not sanitary to drink. It is made from all natural composted horse and chicken manure and waste hay around feeders. Not something that anyone should consider food safe.
