Bureaucracy for Bureaucracy's Sake


The Dorset County Council (UK) is tackling big issues like truth in pastry advertising:

A baker has been told to rename her novelty 'Pig Tarts' because they do not contain any pork.

Val Temple, who runs Sgt Bun Bakery, Weymouth, Dorset, said that she was shocked when Dorset County Council's trading standards department told her she must change the names of the novelty cakes.

She also said she was told to rename her 'Robin Tarts', as the bird does not feature in the ingredients, and her 'Paradise Slice' would also have to have a new moniker because it doesn't come from paradise.

Remember Wednesday Addams trying to sell lemonade to a girl scout?

Girl Scout: Is this made from real lemons?
Wednesday: Yes.
Girl Scout: I only like all-natural foods and beverages, organically grown, with no preservatives. Are you sure they're real lemons?
Pugsley: Yes.
Girl Scout: I'll tell you what. I'll buy a cup if you buy a box of my delicious Girl Scout cookies. Do we have a deal?
Wednesday: Are they made from real Girl Scouts?
