That's why I said technically. After a few times of hitting random beans when they hit the dog food and go into a panic I'd be like "The factory must have mislabeled a run of something! I would call the factory so they could recall this lot number, but I don't know which factory to call since there's no label..." Turning it into a lesson on how there's more to identifying items than just knowing what you want to eat.
Once the kid was suitably panicked, I wouldn't actually make them eat it, but some kids are stubborn enough to try anyway, so: "technically."
