James McGovern gets up on a soapbox for the most absurd of reasons today - he's upset with a goodie bag:

In today's society, you would figure that folks would be a little smarter. Ignoring the environmental aspect of their stupidity, the gum wasn't even kosher. Ever heard of a place called the Middle East? You should whenever serving any food product ensure that it meets the standards of today's diverse IT population. Everything you consider should be Kosher at a mininum and vegetarian out of respect for those from India.

Oh, please. If you start worrying about every possible sub-population that might have problems with your package you'll go nuts. I fly a fair amount, and you know what's on most sandwiches I get? Ham. As it happens, I dislike ham - always have. I just throw the ham away. I don't pitch a fit, I don't get excited about the groups that might be upset about the choice - I just don't eat it.
