Ban Sought on Eating Obama

(Bandung, Indonesia) The Indonesian Consumer Foundation is urging authorities to ban a "potentially dangerous local snack" called Obama. The consumer watchdog indicates that the snack may be harmful because it's packaged with a small toy which could be eaten by small children.



Obama Snack
As can be seen, Obama is waving a flag in one hand that displays "SNACK ANTI TERRORIST" and the other hand seems to be dropping a grenade into a garbage can which has "BOOM" coming out of it. Odd? I'll say. I don't believe the jihadis view Obama as a strong enemy of terrorism so neither do I.

Interestingly, there's a video showing an Indonesian shop where Obama snacks are sold. Check it out.


Good stuff if one understands the local language.

Curiously, although this story has been reported by a number of sources around the globe, none that I've seen identify what the snack is. Looks like a cheese puff in the video.

The local authorities in the town of Bandung, Jawa Bariat, Indonesia, will decide whether the snack stays or goes. Apparently, use of a state leader's image in packaging is contrary to some government regulation.
