Christofacists on the march, UK edition:

A Derbyshire café has been the recipient of a letter threatening legal action and a victim of graffiti, all because of the “punny” name of one of its sandwiches. The Bridge Bakehouse in Whaley Bridge offers freshly baked, handmade goods including cakes, pastries and sandwiches, one of which has been branded an “insult to Christianity”.

The café boasts a menu of sandwiches, most of which have playful names, including “Don’t go bacon my heart”, “Are you chicken me out?” and “Get ya goat, you’ve pulled”. These are just a small selection of the puns on offer at this popular Peak District business.

However the name which has sparked this entire saga is a caramelised onion, onion chutney, mature cheddar and mozzarella sandwich, dubbed the “cheesus Christ”. The sandwich has been on the menu since last year, but in the last week the sandwich name on the cafe’s outdoor menu has been painted over in white paint and the business has been sent a letter claiming to be from a Christian group threatening legal action.
