Ignoring InstructionsWhen I was small, a friend of mine waved a big plastic bottle at me and asked me if I "wanted some drinking yoghurt?" I pointed out the "do not drink" label, but no, he was convinced this was a big jug of a particularly strange, liquid yoghurt that was briefly popular in the 70s.
He was sick for hours, after consuming a suprisingly large quantity of washing liquid.
What instructions have you ignored?

Indoor FireworksWhen I was 7 I was at a friends birthday party. It was the usual affair - party games, jelly, cheese and pinapple cocktail sticks etc.
At the end of the food the hosting adults placed a small brightly coloured pill on our empty plates, then left the room for a minute. Being young kiddies we assumed they were sweets and promply scoffed them. The adults return to the room and looked horrified that we had eaten the little pills - they were indoor fireworks! Cue much frantic screaming and cursing from all the parents present, and violent vomiting from us kids. 9 of us went to hospital and I heard the hosts were nearly sued several times over!
