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.”

Oh Good Grief! Why not just do what any group of people do when they go out for pizza and can't agree...order one set of toppings for one half of the pizza and a different set of toppings for the other half of the pizza?

What this teacher wants to do is train the Non-Muslim students to give in to the Muslims. Shame on her.

A muslim pizza would offend almost everyone else in the world, but you don't see them removing their favorite topings from it in order to be "PC".

"Headteacher" (that could have a different meaning, which could be offensive) Jan Charters isn't teaching these students how to be "PC" she's teaching them how to be submissive to Islam.

Islamic combo pizza toppings: Camel sausage, goat bacon, goat cheese, Camel urine, black cumin, rotten whale bits, fly wings, (Both left and right wings) fried yellow goat cheese, Camel ham, dog or rat smoked back straps, anchovies

Here’s the real lesson learned:

Why make a pizza for others which offends me?

I’ll take pepperoni, mushrooms, black olives, and double cheese on a high-rising crust, please. I hope that offends everybody.

Cant find what your looking for? Try typing it into the search bar

This is from the school's website.

No apostrophe in "cant" and "you're" is shown as "your."

But as long as the pizza is PC, who cares about Western Civilization?

While the intent of this lesson may have been to promote understanding of others, it might also teach to a wise student that:

1. Their are some people you just don’t want to eat pizza with.

2. You find a large enough group all you eat is a crust.

3. Add a few more people and you can forget the crust.

4. PC while it has good intentions it is just pain stupid sometimes.

I was pretty disappointed at the absence of ham or any other pork products. Apparently even The Sun will only go so far.

My cousin Larry is a good example of these religious food commissars. He has not seen the inside of a synagogue since the last rich relative died but he does insist on keeping kosher. I have long believed that he does this just for the extra attention he gets at family gatherings.

He once started to lecture me about snacking on gummi bears, since some food-police type had told him they contain pork gelatin. I told him I hardly thought I would go to hell for eating a gummi bear, considering all the other evil things I might do, like, say, kicking his fat ass out onto the freeway.

On the rare occasions that I let him into my house, I tell him to either eat what we are having or buy his own food. Larry weighs around 380 pounds so it is probably just as well that there is something he won't eat.

we still don’t want to offend *that* group (and no, I don’t mean Jews.)

And anyway, Jews don't get offended by such ridiculous things.

"Oy gevalt, pork on a pizza!...Shall we riot, Morty?"

At my first base I worked for a MSgt who ordered two pizzas. One by general consensus and the other was his pizza with “Butt Burners and Little Hairy Fishes.” That’s how he ordered it. The pizza place was used to him.

When the pizzas arrived nobody screamed, fainted or declared Jihad. We all survived.

Go figure.

I wonder how many of these kids will now never attempt to build a real pizza?

Italians ought to sue the ridiculuous dorks who staged this abomination. A pizza is what it is, and if mohammedans don’t want to eat something that tastes good, well f—k ‘em.

Nope. But they can have my share. I’m not sensitive.

Veggie/no cheese....I have one in the oven!

What? You have the crust and the sauce?

That's what they call breadsticks.
