I’ve been meaning to spotlight Mouse Print for a while now, because they’ve got a great wrinkle on blog-based consumer advocacy. Mouse Print digs into the blocks of small-type text that advertisers and product packagers are required to include but would prefer you ignore. Every so often ths site even turns up something that’s not in the fine print at all and really ought to be. Their latest entry, for instance, spotlights a common product and an industry practice that ought to scare the heck out of anyone coping  with a food allergy. (If your blood pressure isn’t high enough yet this morning, be sure to read down that page for the manufacturer’s response.)
