Burger King Lids are Sacrilegious


Burger King (England) is withdrawing it's ice-cream cones after a Moslem complained that the lid was sacrilegious and offended him (I shit you not)
The man claimed the design resembled the Arabic inscription for Allah, and branded it sacrilegious, threatening a "jihad".

The chain is being forced to spend thousands of pounds redesigning the lid with backing from The Muslim Council of Britain. It apologised and said: "The design simply represents a spinning ice-cream cone."

He was not satisfied by the decision to withdraw the cones and has called on Muslims to boycott Burger King. He said: "This is my jihad. How can you say it is a spinning swirl? If you spin it one way to the right you are offending Muslims."
I have often said that cool, tasty treats will eventually lead to war.

It was a wise move for Burger King to withdraw its lids, it was an even smarter move to apologize, no doubt profusely, for this heinous act. Swirly lids are no laughing matter, it sets a dangerous president. I remember the time when I got Dairy Queen to withdraw its lids from their Double Brownie chocolate delight. I was about to start eating this scrumptious treat when I noticed that the little swirl on the lid looked exactly like Jesus smoking a Marlboro. I completely flipped out. I screamed and ranted and since I'm a Christian I called for a Crusade against Dairy Queen. That certainly got their attention. They not only withdrew the lids, they apologized to me while actually kissing the fattest part of my ass. Not only that, they gave me some really great cost-saving coupons which came in handy on my next visit. Jesus haters.

Burger King acts like queens
