Ham Sandwiches And Sausage Rolls May Be Banned From Office Kitchens For Being ‘Offensive’

Kitchens that are shared between office workers may soon be banned from storing pork products like sausage rolls over fears that they are “offensive”.

New guidelines proposed by interfaith group CoExist House say that employers should consider worker’s religions before allowing ham sandwiches placed in the fridge alongside other products.

The group also suggests that alcohol should not be served at corporate events in case it upsets members of certain faiths.

I think only one group is behind this and it's not the Jews or the Mormons.

No more pork? No more sausage rolls?

The homos should file a discrimination lawsuit.

It’d be offensive to those people who enjoy eating those. Where does one group decide for another? You can’t do this or that because it might offend someone? What about the person being offended that the other person was offended? This whole idea of being offensive is offensive. I for one am offended.

You’d have to ban wieners.

My Hindu coworkers are grossed out by people eating beef. They would never say anything about it though. When I eat with them I do not eat beef. Only a philistine would.

PERMANENTLY BAN IMMIGRATION BY ANY MUSLIM.

I make my dog homemade dogfood and this month it involved some freezer burned cod and shrimp skins. HE LOVES IT. But we do warm it up for him. Twice a day.

Limburger cheese sticks! I had a co-worker who did this aargh!
Anything pizza as the person cooking it lets it splatter all over and never ever cleans up after themselves!

Also never microwave muslims unless using a neutron bomb.

We had pulled pork in the caf today. There was chicken for those who don’t like or can’t eat pork.

Exactly!

They never gave a hoot that Jewish sensitivities might be tweaked by ham sandwiches.

Talk about your overt acts of back door antisemitism, that’s all this amounts to.

Jews? Who cares what they think?

Islamic adherents? Oh, what can we do to make you more comfortable?

Sheesh!

So now we need two microwave ovens in the break room, with one labeled "muslims only?"

What if I eat a BLT and use the water fountain afterwards?

You have GOT to be kidding. If this is real, I suppose that all pork products will soon be removed from grocery stores, as muzzies shop there, and we certainly wouldn’t want them to be offended while buying food, would we!
