Wacky perhaps, but not surprising. Arguably, this labeling is required by the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004, Title II of Public Law 108-282. See:

Certainly it is easier to add a stupid warning than to contest the law, and risk having FDA force you to recall your peanut butter.
Fans of wacky warning labels might get a smile out of these just in time warnings for laptops:
