A Pastry By Any Other Name

This is just as backwards as the renaming of French Fries.

Iranians love Danish pastries, but when they look for the flaky dessert at the bakery they now have to ask for 'Roses of the Prophet Muhammad.'

Bakeries across the capital were covering up their ads for Danish pastries Thursday after the confectioners' union ordered the name change in retaliation for caricatures of the Muslim prophet published in a Danish newspaper.

'Given the insults by Danish newspapers against the prophet, as of now the name of Danish pastries will give way to 'Rose of Muhammad' pastries,' the union said in its order.

Why can't all of the nut jobs of the world just unite, congregate only amongst themselves and leave the rest of us the hell out of their madness?
