I don't get it.

Why isn't everything labeled "do not eat" then? Why just these packets?

    Presumably because they're often included in things you're meant to consume. Someone who has never encountered them may think they're part of the product. It's obvious to all of us, because we've experienced them all our lives, but that won't be true for everyone.

    I get these things in boxes of steel fasteners for the welding press I operate in a factory.

    They aren't making them specifically for food. They make one type that anyone who needs it buys. It needs the message for when it's used with food, but that doesn't mean it's only ever used with food.
