What the Hell?

Y'know, I think the best reason for Burger King to withdraw their ice cream lid is that, well, it looks like a sloppy pile of dog shit.  It being fast food then maybe this is an accurate portrayal of the contents.

When this guy threatened Jihad, did he mean against Burger King in particular or ice cream and other dairy products in general?  Cause I'm all for a holy war against, say, natural yoghurt.  Tastes like wet turd. 

Anyway, I'm boycotting Burger King for not having the balls to laugh this off.  Plus their burgers taste like ass.

Update

I called the customer service line at Burger King UK this afternoon to fish for comments.  The conversation went approximately like this:

Sortapundit:  Hi.  I was wondering if you had any comments about the story reported in the Sportsman about your ice cream lids.  You have heard about that, haven't you?

Customer Service (CS):  Yes, sir, I did hear about that.  We don't have any comments, but I'd be happy to forward your question to the relevant department.

Sortapundit: OK.  Off the record, though, what do you think about it?

CS: Well, it sounds pretty silly to me.

Sortapundit:  Yeah, me too.  So, hypothetically, if I was offended about one of your logos, would you withdraw it?

CS: Are you offended by a logo?

Sortapundit: Ahem... yes.  If you rotate the Burger King logo 90 degrees to the left and then squint, it looks a little like the sign of my God, the God of the Seventh Day Hopping Adventists.  I find it very offensive.

CS: (laughing) OK, if you have a specific complaint about any of our products I'd be happy to give you an address to send your complaint.

Sortapundit:  Nah, it's OK.  I'm lapsed.  Thanks anyway.

I think they should have just changed their slogan to "Burger King: Our Icecream is Good Enough for God".
