What is with the warning label saying a product contains chemicals known to California to cause cancer etc?Why is California the only state mentioned?
This warning was on a can of artificial snow I recently purchased.
WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, or birth defects or other reproductive harm.

That's a good question. I have seen that on some products as well and I wondered the same thing like OK, what about the rest of the U.S.?
Answer by James S
California has higher regulations than what the Federal guidelines call for, particularly with lead.
If the product is being sold in California, it is required to have the label on the packaging. Since most items available there are sold nationwide, the rest of us benefit from it.
Once the other states get with the program, or the Feds catch on, you'll see the label updated.
