A poe-worthy fundamentalist Islamic group called the Popular Egyptian Islamic Association recently advised followers not to eat tomatoes because they’re just too Christian.
I mean, LOOK AT THE CROSS!

The group posted a photo on its page of a tomato — which appears to reveal the shape of a cross after being cut in half – along with the message: “Eating tomatoes is forbidden because they are Christian. [The tomato] praises the cross instead of Allah and says that Allah is three (a reference to the Trinity).
Is it a parody? I hope it’s a parody. It’s one hell of a good parody.
Meanwhile, when asked for clarification, the group added:
“We didn’t say you can’t eat tomatoes. We said don’t cut it in [such a way that reveals] the cross shape.”
There. Now it all makes logical sense.
I can’t wait until their next mission: To abolish lower case t’s from the English alphabet.
