Round and Round They Go

HAHAH! This is hilarious. Almost a week ago my sister and I were joking about renaming Danishes, and here, they've gone and done it!

I prefer our name, though ... 'Infidel Pastries' has such a better ring to it.

If, as quoted by Ronald Wright, 'Every time history repeats itself the price goes up,' would these be very expensive confections?

i prefer Infidel Pastries as well. Roses of the Prophet Mohammed is nowhere near as snappy.
although i didn't know there was even a market for Danishes in Iran.

"Now, let me see. I'd like two cream horns, a sponge cake, three pieces of vanilla slice and two apple Roses of the Prophet Mohammed, thank you."

Apple Roses of the Prophet Mohammed. Try saying that five times fast!

I like Infidel Pastries better too.

In a less amusing historical point of interest, back during WWII, we renamed Hamburgers and Sauerkraut to "Liberty Sausage" and "Liberty Cabbage" to spite the Germans.

Just saying.

'Infidel Pastries' has a much better ring to it than 'Roses of the Prophet Mohammed'.

All through this row over cartoons, I've been thinking that Mohammed would have been horrified at what his followers were doing in his name.

Cultural parellels should bring our countries together! Not tear them apart. America! Seize this moment.

w00t! So much more awesome than "Freedom Fries."

And yay for Ronald Wright!

Does it strike anyone else as odd that drawing a cartoon of the Prophet is blasphemy, but naming a pastry after him is okay? 'Infidel Pastries' works much better. :D

If we can't laugh about Muhammad's "roses", then the terrorists have already won.
