Kids told to bake PC pizza
The Sun ^ | 1-19-08 | ROBIN PERRIE

Posted on 01/18/2008 5:11:39 PM PST by atomic conspiracy

STUNNED schoolkids were asked to design a politically-correct PIZZA which would not offend anyone.

Pupils were told to discuss which toppings might upset religious groups, veggies or people with allergies.

In response, The Sun’s culinary experts have cooked up the most unPC pizza in Britain, with ingredients to offend everyone.

Greg McLaughlan, 40, whose daughter Chelsea, 12, was in the lesson, said: “It’s ridiculous to tell kids what they can put on pizza. It makes race relations more difficult.”

But headteacher Jan Charters defended the lesson at Oakwood Technology College, Rotherham, South Yorks – where a fifth of pupils are Muslim.

She said: “We frequently ask students to look at all manner of other view-points so they gain a full understanding of a topic.”

What, no bacon or sausage? Oh right, we still don’t want to offend *that* group (and no, I don’t mean Jews.)

Where is the pork for the Muslims and Jews? If we really want to offend people — put human flesh on the the pizza. What a stupid lesson for the kids

If I ever get rich and famous, I’m gonna have the worlds first Endangered Species Pizza Party.

An all you can eat affair with only bonafide endangered species parts and pieces used as toppings.

Nice to know that 20% are setting the rules for the other 80%.

Note to teacher: this is better known as tyranny. You and your fellow countrymen better wake the hell up and protect your traditional culture.

Listen Teach, I don’t eat pork and I’m never offended if someone else does. Long as they don’t ask me to eat it, who cares?!!!

I’m really glad that my spiritual beliefs dictate no dietary restrictions. It is nice to be able to travel anywhere in the world and eat whatever is placed in front of me. Sure, I might not like the taste but I’m not going to go to hell for eating it.

The other six offended groups don't chop peoples' heads off.

In the end was there anything created? I can envision how all ingredients might offend someone--from the crust, to tomato sauce, to the toppings.

No pork. The Sun’s basic political correctness is showing.

We had a muslim kid from Kyrgyzstan as an exchange student for a year.

One night we had pizza for dinner. We got two: one cheese and one pepperoni. Our guest ate the cheese pizza.

Later that night I wandered back into the kitchen for a snack and there is our exchange student wolfing down the leftover pepperoni pizza.

He glanced up from stuffing his face and said, “Don’t tell my mom!”

It was quite funny.
