Ill Wind Dept.
Jan. 31st, 2006 01:11 pmNo, this post is not about flatulence.
For those who haven't heard, there was an issue of a Danish newspaper recently in which a cartoonist depicted Mohammed as a terrorist. A number of Muslim nations have taken offense and are boycotting the country. So far these include Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, but it looks like more are going to follow.
In support of free speech, some web sites like this one, are listing Danish exports that can be bought in North America as a sort-of counter boycott. As a result, I have now found out about The Danish Foodshop and The Danish Deli, two online exporters of fine Danish food.
Now when
taxlady next has a serious hankering for some obscure foodstuff I've never heard of, I know how it can be obtained.
As they say, Tis an ill wind that blows no one any good.
