Tender, Juicy Obama Fingers Hit the Shelves By Charles Hawley

A German frozen food company hopes to raise sales with a new product: Obama fingers. The tender, fried chicken bits come with a tasty curry sauce. The company says it was unaware of the possible racist overtones of the product.

Selling products has, of course, become a bit more difficult than usual these days. No wonder then that companies everywhere are turning to optimistic marketing messages in an effort to counteract the steady drum beat of negativity coming from front page headlines around the globe.

Many sales executives have drawn the same conclusion: What better poster child for hope than US President Barack Obama? There are Obama dolls, Obama T-shirts, Obama soap-on-a-rope. There is even Obama thong underwear on offer.

Not wanting to miss the boat, a German food company has now gotten into the act. Sprehe, a company that has all manner of frozen delicacies on offer, has come up with a new product it calls "Obama Fingers." Far from being real digits, though, the "fingers" in question are "tender, juicy pieces of chicken breast, coated and fried," as the product packaging claims.

Fried chicken, in other words. With a curry dip.

I wonder if they will introduce Obama shaped waffles. Anyway, we have all dreamed of nibbling on Obama's fingers, now we finally have the chance. Don't even get me started on the delicious curry dip.

Looks good...
I’m sure someone could come up with a list of appropriate sides to go along with ‘em.

Hate crime.

[Pessimist]

Is there such a thing as wagyu chicken?

[Kirkwood]

So many funny jokes that would get be banned... LOL!

Horrible image - yesterday I watched portions of Final Destination 2 - don't ask why. Severed and burned body parts help fill the plot.

[andy58-in-nh]

How many "Obama fingers" am I holding up? ;-)

[chuck_the_tv_out]

"Hate crime."

Good kiddie joke...

Should you eat chicken with your fingers????....

NO! You should eat your fingers separately.

[shiva]

Crunchy brown on the outside, white on the inside.

Goes along with the Hillary pack from KFC. If I remember, it was two large thighs, two small breasts and two left wings.

[andy58-in-nh]

Is there such a thing as wagyu chicken?

Yes, but it's all white meat.

[mojitojoe]

Appropriate, I can say that much.

[Leg Olam]

My little dog leaves three or four Obama Fingers on the newspaper daily.

[ari-freedom]

Now you can eat from the body of our Savior.

[McGruff]

Can't I just eat my waffles?

[ArrogantBustard]

Curry dip?

I think some other brown substance would be more appropriate.

I don’t know what’s worse.......Fried Obama Fingers or Mint Curry Dip.....*shudder*
