Since I first mentioned Judith Apter Klinghoffer and Little Green Football's idea to "Buy Danish" to support Denmark in the cartoon wars, a bunch of new websites and campaigns have been launched.

I saw them too - in the "Hispanic food section." The ones I bought were in the pasta section, and the soup mix section. That was one of my husband's complaints when we went to buy our 3 year old a toy kitchen. All of them had Spanish all over the box - except Barbie!
I think it's Swiss, but if the cheese is Danish, yum!
Doesn't it? I couldn't find any! :(
I think Havarti is the most popular Danish item here! Everyone has bought some, or is going to! :)
BTW - Did you catch what the Queen of Denmark said? She is just AWESOME.
Is the Pope Polish? Just a joke. I think Ikea is Swedish in origin.
I did see what the Queen said about Islam. Wow! And no weasel words either like "radical Islam"; just Islam.
Another freeper said this and I think it's true:
Islam is an army disguised as a religion.
I like Michelle Malkin, but this is stupid. I disagree with the the terrorists, but that hardly means the Danes are worth admiring. By the way, I know several Danes in this area, and even though they live here, they don't think much of U.S. Americans,
Personally, I'm going to boycott defeatism after I go fill my car with Danish products tonight. Hey whitey, check out cynics r us.com. Great site!!
I loved a Dane in my 17th year, and lo these many years later, I will certainly buy Havarti, cookies, and ham!
God bless Denmark!
PDQ Bach ~ Bump!
Swedish, I think.
muslim women don't have navels?
Actually, she probably isn't muslim either, considering the bikini she's wearing, come to think about it.
You've never seen a "Bomber Baptist", or a "Murderous Methodist", or a "Pugilist Presbyterian" or an "Angry Amish"?
LOL!
Yes, since they are part of the "Netherlands" I WON'T be buying. I haven't had time to read Michelle's article yet but I will and I love Michelle and her stand. She really gets it but she may not be as aware as we are on the Netherworld aspect after you and I have followed the endemic corruption of Aruba, a Dutch Antilles Island and part of the Netherlands. After reading the list, I can't see anything I have to give up anyway. I DID have to give up unilever products like Dove to boycott Aruba products. CO
See, I SHOULDN'T have opened my mouth until after I read the article LOL. *hanging head*!!
CO, it was my mistake - I mislead you = I knew what I meant but I typed the opposite! Sorry.
Just an exuse to bump the thread...
I've finished off a pack of Arla havarti with jalapenos; will get some of the
Arla havarti with dill tomorrow. And I'll get some Knorr packets if
my store has them.
Guess I'll have to make a run up to Solvaang this weekend for sausage and aebelskivers. It's *almost* like being in Denmark.
