Pig sick

A BAKER has been forced to rename her novelty pig tarts - because they don't contain any pork. Val Temple, who runs Sgt Bun Bakery, Weymouth, says officers from Dorset's trading standards department also told her she must swap the name of robin tarts as they are not made from robins. And she claims she was instructed to rename her paradise slice because ... it's not from paradise. Mrs Temple has made the novelty cakes in the shape of pigs and robins as a treat for her customers for years. She said: "It's a joke. "The officers came in and said they had had a complaint and I must change the names because they didn't contain pork, robin or paradise. advertisement "It's an insult to the public. Of course they don't contain pig, robin or paradise. (via)

The story almost seems too silly to be true. Are people really complaining over the name of an item? It's pretty obvious there are no robins in the treats.
