Pull-tab cans:

Tabs with printed words are unsafe and tend to be covered with dirt, so drinking straight from pull-tab cans may cause disease. You'd better pour canned drink into a cup. Certain companies often print "one more can" in ink on the tab to promote their products, but the ink is harmful to human health.

Bagged milk:

You should first clean the milk package, which is usually printed with patterns and words. Most of these printed materials contain lead. You may be poisoned, and your blood and gastrointestinal systems may be affected if you drink straight from milk bags for long. Therefore, first clean the milk package, cut the bag open with clean scissors, and pour the milk into a cup before drinking.
