Godt fromme muslimer i UK holder øje med butikkerne, hvad ligner det at
sælge uhellige is-desserter.

Burger King recalls 'sacrilegious' desserts
JOHN INNES
THE fast-food chain, Burger King, is withdrawing its ice-cream cones after
the lid of the dessert offended a Muslim.
The man claimed the design resembled the Arabic inscription for Allah, and
branded it sacrilegious, threatening a "jihad".
The chain is being forced to spend thousands of pounds redesigning the lid
with backing from The Muslim Council of Britain. It apologised and said:
"The design simply represents a spinning ice-cream cone."
The offending lid was spotted in a branch in Park Royal last week by
business development manager Rashad Akhtar, 27, of High Wycombe.
He was not satisfied by the decision to withdraw the cones and has called on
Muslims to boycott Burger King. He said: "This is my jihad. How can you say
it is a spinning swirl? If you spin it one way to the right you are
offending Muslims."
A Muslim Council spokesman said: "We commend the sensitive and prompt action
that Burger King has taken."
Man burde slet ikke sælge is, der er ingen beretninger om at Profeten kunne
lide isvafler.
