If it's not yours: hands off.

Believe us, it's for your own good.

Reddit user Phantom0591 posted this picture of a Coffee Mate bottle with an enlightening and hilarious message on it. It turns out someone was drinking coffee creamer that didn't belong to them, but it might have been mislabeled.

Turns out two co-workers might have just gotten a whole lot closer without meaning to. If the new label is to be believed, the creamer bottle was filled with breast milk. You'd think the thief would have tasted the difference in their coffee.

Next time, just spring for your own coffee creamer. But enjoy your newfound connection!
