Well its a damn good thing it wasn’t ” Happy Ramadan ” . At least most Jewish people have a sense of humor. Someone would be putting on the belt and heading for the nearest crowded area ! But its truly amazing how dumbed down this Country has gotten over the years…. By the way, where was this ? I see Iowa on the label….” Looks like some pretty good ham though “.
I know. It boggles my mind. But seriously, why shouldn’t they advertise it that way? One hears of the celebration of Hanuka, and why not promote your products during that time. Some good little Catholic old lady will be peering at the meat display and see that ham is a tasty treat for Hanuka, so she decides to buy it. Success!
It would be kinda-sorta like using an image of a thumbs up Mohammad, with the caption “Pulled Pork, it’s whats for dinner!”, well, you know, without the beheadings, bombings, and general goofiness.

No joke Nina.
Growing up I knew a Rabbi who had a thing for pigs knuckles. He would have the little Goyem kids get them from the butcher for him.

My Jewish co-worker, Ed, eats pork all the time. In fact, if a new rib place opens, he’s the first to check it out. For some, it’s no big deal.

This would have been hilarious if the store had been in Liberty, Monticello or Ellenville NY(big jewish population there if you didn’t know that).
However, it makes you wonder about the intelligence of the advertising people.
