I bought my k-stix at Wal-Mart; had to ask the people behind the pharmacy counter for them. Never rec'd anything like that. I bet it's a rogue pharmicist that doesn't believe in Atkins. I would start with a complaint to the store manager and move on up. I can't imagine any other products they sell being treated like this (ie. home pregnancy tests with the danger of pg./m-c/or multiples or condoms with the dangers of HIV infection... you get the picture.). That is ridiculous unsolicited advice and I'd be furious at the assumptions that were made here.
