Some clickety-click reveals that there is indeed a "Miscellaneous and General" section which includes "Contamination of or interference with goods with intention of causing public alarm or anxiety, etc" in that act.
But it's the chain of acting silly in front of friend's camera -> getting a chair hurled at him -> facing a six month sentence for intentional contamination that caused the WTF in my case. Aren't laws like that more about crazy people/wannabe-terrorists/anarchists/extortionists who actually tamper with foods in grocery stores etc?
And hurling chairs at people you've seen doing silly things on Youtube? Do I need to wear a helmet next time I visit the UK? :-)

("miscellaneous provisions in the Public Order Act"? is it just me, or is Britain a much more consistent supplier of WTF than the US these days?)
