The fruity gravies and sauces on offer last night triggered worrying about the possible cranberry content, something which is on my warfarin user's stop list. At least cranberry juice is, and it is hard to see why any other sort of cranberry would be a good thing. But I did not like to bother the rather busy waitress with what she might have thought was a frivolous or facetious enquiry.
Perhaps if I can find the time I should start a Warfarin Society, a society dedicated to the promotion of warfarin labeling on food, in the same way as many restaurants and supermarkets now go in for gluten labeling. A first task would be to design the seal to be used on suitable items, or, and this needs some thought, on unsuitable items.
An obvious if rather banal design would involve a small disc containing a number of even smaller discs taking the internationally recognised colours used for indicating the dosage of the various warfarin pills on offer. Mid brown for 1mg, light blue for 3mg and so on. Assuming that is, one was not thereby infringing some Hirst intellectual property right. I think he was early on the scene with expensive art work composed entirely of pill coloured discs.
