More an attempt at safeguarding themselves about litigation than H&S
Aldi really should know by now how we Englischen spell "centre".
11 cats, several parrots in his stinking hovel. Hucker has no hot running water. Aldi washing up liquid is luxury for him.
Litigation only happens because people let it. Any twatt suing someone for poisoning themselves with washing up liquid should be laughed out of court. Oh wait, it's not actually poisonous! So there's no possibility of litigation!
They spell it zentrum, which is closer to UK than US spelling.
Well it would have been nice to have somebody put the words down as I cannot read pictures. However I noticed the other day that in that stupid advert about the very dirty T shirt where that bloody woman says No Way it says that the stuff has to be kept out of the reach of children.
Yet we wear clothing washed in the stuff?
What next? Brian
water's toxic if you drink too much of it.

But water doesn't damage eyes.

Making washing machine tablets attractive to look at is also likely to make them attractive to young children. And young kid often put small things (like toys) in their mouths.
But it's not unusual for some to be allergic to some types of washing powder anyway - especially the bio kind.
Eh! that would be the pressure of the water, NOT the water itself.
Too bloody true that's why I dilute it with whisky ;-)
That would be an ice cannon, do they exist?
Neither does washing up liquid, it just stings a bit. Same as shampoo.
Same here, except it's vodka.
There's this thing called evolution where the thick little bastards do stupid stuff and die, leaving the rest of the population smarter. Protect the idiots, and you f*ck up the next generation.
Same goes for allergies. Let the people with allergies die off then they don't pass them on to the next generation.
It's not toxic, it just overload your kidneys.
"Wash hands thoroughly after using"
I can remember some time in the 70's, the fuss that was created by a newspaper column in which Jilly Cooper claimed to wash her hair in washing-up liquid. A few weeks later it transpired that this wasn't just any old washing up liquid but ICI Teepol. Which was, and maybe still is, industrial strength washing up liquid as used by factory canteens, hotels and the like. And only available in ten gallon drums (allegedly) Looking at the frizzy state of Jilly Cooper's hair in the intervening 40 odd years one might be tempted to say - figures. But there again she doesn't seem to have any bald patches - although she isn't photographed from above very often.

I had a big bottle of shampoo once which was useless as shampoo, so I used it as w-u-l.

Aren't all detergents pretty much the same?
