So story here is Australia that Nuttella, a popular hazelnut spread is refusing to personalize a jar of their chocolatey gooeyness for a little girl called Isis.

[Story here.](http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/food/nutella-refuses-to-print-girls-name-isis-on-customised-jar/news-story/c3ffec8b086cce85ce09b6dcde9b26f0)

I’m not sure whether to laugh at the stupidity of Ferrero (the manufacturer) or to cry at the prospect of a world gone completely fucking bonkers.

I believe there is a clause in the Geneva Convention prohibiting that…

As to the OP, I give you two words: Freedom Fries

And two more (this you may have to goggle): Liberty Cabbage

People have been nucking futs for a long, long time…

Why should terrorists get free Vegemite?

My 2.5 kg pail is almost empty, and a new one is going to cost me a hundred bucks!
