Warning: the following complications are known to occur when performing surgery on a spice rack.
Excessive Spice Flibbergation In rare cases, the patient's spice rack may experience a severe and unpredictable flibbering of its internal spice structure, leading to a complete loss of flavor and aroma.
Causes: Improper use of spice bottles, insufficient pre-surgery meditation, and/or an over-reliance on 'just a dash'.
Spice Bottle Fragmentation When a spice bottle is opened too quickly, its contents may become scattered across the surgical table, causing a hazardous and distracting environment for the operating team.

Spice Fume Asphyxiation Prolonged exposure to the potent aromas of the spice rack can cause dizziness, disorientation, and/or temporary blindness.
Prevention: Wear a face mask, work in a well-ventilated area, and/or consider the use of Aromatherapy Support Groups.
