And the label doesn't say anything about it, doesn't have the "don't throw in the trash" logo.

Those LEDs are glued in, there's no way to remove batteries before discarding the item

Alkaline batteries can be safely disposed in household garbage.

*it can be safely done yes, but but shouldn't and it's not allowed in some areas. Where I live everywhere that sells batteries has to have collection points for their recycling and it is not legal to put them in the trash.
