Kinda my problem with that label: you have no idea what's it about when you see that label. The spectrum of what got that label is so broad that it's not very useful IMO.
Coffee specifically used require Prop65 warning because it releases acrylamide during roasting process, but after a lenghty legal battle coffee got an exeption.
The overly broad selection and vague wording was done intentionally by chemical manufacturer lobbyists to muddy the waters when it was obvious Prop 65 (or something equivalent) was likely to pass. There is a lot of this kind of last minute sabotage in California props.
Watch out, though. That coffee may contain chemicals known to the state of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm!
Actually, Prop 65 specifically exempts coffee from the warning requirement.
I have seen that goofy warning in SBUX stores, for whatever it's worth haha (not on the coffee cup).
