Hams for Hanukkah in New York City

We read:

"A New York grocer made a holiday faux pas when it advertised hams as "Delicious for Chanukah," reports FOX News. For the uninformed, ham is not part of the Jewish kosher diet and Hanukkah is the eight-day Jewish holiday that began Tuesday evening. Pictures of the mistake by the Balducci's store in Greenwich Village were posted on a blog over the weekend.

Jennifer Barton, director of marketing, told The Associated Press Thursday that the signs were changed as soon as the error was noted. Barton released a statement apologizing for the mistake on the company web site and said Balducci's would review its employee training.

Jews of course went on a rampage, called for the beheading of the grocer and burnt the neighborhood down (NOT)
