    think the OP meant "contains the WORD wine" which is pretty much the case as has been established already, (had you followed the thread properly, you would have worked that bit out by now) Ive highlighted it in red for you, in case your completely confused by it all.

    Well it would appear from the OP's post a couple up he didn't just mean the word wine. He saw it has 7.5% alcohol in originally, so assumed it has alcoholic content.

    However the OP maybe able to re-establish that basic and simple fact for you. No doubt whatever is said you will argue for the sake of argument about it anyway, anything to deflect the obvious ;)

    If you think I'm arguing for the sake of arguing, then stop responding to me. I'm intitled to my opinon just as you are to yours. Just because my opinion goes against the general opinion of this thread doesn't make my point any less valid.

    In my opinion calling the cashier a moron is nothing short of rude and ignorant. You are entitled to yours.

    Judging by the OP's post above yours, he doesn't know that the alcohol would have evaporated. So is he being ignorant? Is he a moron? No, he just doesn't know. Similar to the checkout girl, she didn't know. Perhaps she would have looked at the ingredients list (as the OP has done on the post above yours) and saw alcohol listed.
    If the OP didn't know, YES he would be a moron, however I am pretty sure he knew already, having purchased it for the purpose of eating and not to get highly drunk from, only a complete moron (not mentioning any names) would not know this basic, pre school, obvious and blatant fact, I do admire your "yeah but no but yeah" dance around the obvious, unfortunately it changes nothing from the fact, apart from makes you look even MORE of a moron ;)

    Likewise, if you do not like the obvious, STOP REPLYING to me, I just like you am also entitled to have an opinion on it (however right it is) ;)

    That's the whole point alcohol WASN'T listed. If there was any alcohol it would have had to be listed.

    I just had a flashback to being refused a pack of Bavaria 0.0% alcohol free beer on a Sunday because it's an alcoholic drink! Came up on the till and not the tellers fault. Tesco FTW.
