A sign advertising the bacon at a Vermont diner has been taken down after a Muslim resident complained about the sign on the Internet and sparked a massive backlash against the restaurant, Sneakers Bistro.
In June, in return for taking part in a local volunteer initiative to plant flower beds in the city’s traffic medians, the diner was awarded a sign on a lamp post that said “Yield for Sneakers Bacon.” A woman took issue with the sign, calling it insensitive to those who don’t eat pork, according to WPTZ.
I do not eat pork, so your bacon sign offends me. Take it down, insensitive inidel. Oh, yes, thank you for pointing out our foolishness. Aarrgh!
Ummm. Bacon.
So shoot me.
