OP is inflight crew. If this were done to be in compliance, they would have been briefed.

I've heard a few choice favourites, including

"please ensure that all items you brought onboard have been returned to your bags and are not in your hands or the seatback pocket"...I didn't appreciate having an FA tell me I had to put away a report that I was reading.

"all food and drinks, whether from the inflight service or brought onboard with you, must be thrown away as we come through the aisles"

"if you are sitting on a cushion or blanket, please remove it and place it on the floor or the seat next to you. This is for safety reasons to ensure that the seats can properly support you." (midweek TATL last year which was barely half-full)
