Yeah. Jimmah pretty much nailed it up above. Imagine the massive freakout if any similar 'joke' was made about Jewish dietary restrictions, or Catholics (formerly) eating fish on Fridays.

Civet is one of the most important animal materials used for perfume. It is taken from a pouch under the tails of male and female civet cats. Civet has a very strong smell, but is diluted and used in minute quantities. The scent is similar to musk, but has a more smoky, sweaty aroma. It is an excellent fixative, and used in many top-quality perfumes today. Civet is available in artificial substitutes.
