Here’s a followup to yesterday’s post about a Muslim Burger King employee who threatened a jihad over a design for an ice cream package that resembled the Arabic symbol for “Allah.”

Burger King promptly capitulated and removed the product from their stores.

Today The Sun published a picture of the dastardly dessert. (Hat tip: zulubaby.)

 Frank says:

The essence of Christianity is told us in the Garden of Eden history. The fruit that was forbidden was on the tree of knowledge. The subtext is, All the suffering you have is because you wanted to find out what was going on. You could be in the Garden of Eden if you had just kept your mouth shut and hadn't asked any questions. -- Playboy Interview, April 1993
