    Instead we now have ‘warning, hot’ on cups with coffe in them. (It should be hot when I order a hot drink)

    That’s the problem with trying to make it fool proof or add foll proof warnings, there will always eb a better fool. Educate the ones that want to be educated and let nature run it’s course. Problems like thise solve themselves. (Although it could get messy)

      There are also temperature limits on hot drinks so the drinks aren’t hot enough to literally melt and fuse skin together.

        You might want to google that “fact”

        There’s no legal maximum temperature in the US.

        Coffee and tea are routinely served at temperatures that can cause severe burns in seconds. Starbucks, today, normally serves their steeped teas at around 200°F. That 10°F hotter than the 180-190°F that was McDonald’s policy at the time of the Stella Liebeck case.

        To prevent scalding and burns, the WHO recommends water be no hotter than 60°C (140°F). Most customers would complain if coffee and tea was mandated to be served at a ‘safe’ temperature.
