Is that sign a reminder that the human hands are sold from a separate bin, and should not be placed in the same bin as the potato-hands?

The sign is to let the customers know not to stroke these potatoes due to their 'organic nature' if you get what I mean.
Damn, it was funnier in my head.

They look like dirty feet to me.

Wow, those look interesting, but I bet it's hard to clean all the dirt out of the crevices. Pass.
