Toy Pig Removed From Farm To Avoid Offending Muslim And Jewish Parents
THE toy pig has been removed from the Early Learning Centre’s HappyLand Goosefeather Farm in case it offended Jews and Muslims parents, especially when the little lambs stuff it into their mouths or up their noses.
The pig had button on it that when pressed triggered an oinking noise. It did not say “Eat Me”, “Dishonour They father” nor “Bacon – Yummy!” But it might as well have.
Writes reader Percy:
I’m a father and I’m offended…disgraceful… do these people have no feelings…? Would the same store remove all animals from the farm set to avoid offending vegetarians? I doubt it…
Why not replace the pig with an edible vegetarian that when pressed says “More vitamin pills, please, mum”?
