A Salafist group from Egypt appears to be trying to retract a post on Facebook that warned that eating tomatoes are "forbidden because they are Christian."
However, the Muslim traditionalist group, calling themselves the Popular Egyptian Islamic Association, apparently still finds tomatoes offensive if they are cut in such a way that reveals the shape of a cross, according to the Now Lebanon website.

What, honestly, can anyone say about this? It both is and isn’t beyond words. What next? Watch out for avocados! And eggs. Easter eggs are supposed to represent the shape of the stone that was in front of the tomb Jesus was in. So I’ve read. But then, there’s lots of nonsense out there.
I love what was said about the salad. Even the muslims realise that is going too far.
I can’t remember which islamic nation it is, but I think they pulled out, or were going to pull out of the Olympics this year. because the Olympic slogan looks like it says Zion.
Just more nonsense.
Take care, and digest the Word.
God bless.
