    Couldn’t have solved this issue with a big batch of stickers?

      That’s probably what will happen – stickers and restock.

        I don’t think they can restock stuff after it goes out the door; that’s an even worse sanitation risk.

          Apply the sticker at the return counter and send the customer away

        Are stickers good enough for one of the most common allergens?

          On butter? Yes. It is enough to cover your ass for the one idiot that doesn’t know it contains milk.

      For stuff still on the shelf, probably. For stuff already sold, no so much.

        For the stuff that’s already sold, they don’t have to destroy it, or do anything really, unless the customer returns it. Hardly any are going to. If the article counts those in the headline number, it’s being a little dishonest.
