Parents Outraged After Café Uses Image Of Peppa Pig To Promote Their Bacon Sandwiches

Parents Outraged After Café Uses Image Of Peppa Pig To Promote Their Bacon Sandwiches

According to some parents, Gordon Street Coffee in Edinburgh, Scotland was completely tactless when they used cultural icon Peppa Pig to try and sell some of their sandwiches.

Not just any old sandwiches--bacon sandwiches. And bacon is made from--well, you get the issue.


The sign that Gordon Street Coffee put up admittedly does look like they are going to be cooking Peppa Pig--or at least putting her in the sandwich.

The graphic has reportedly sparked the ire of local parents, who think the sign could be traumatizing and upsetting to children.

"Even if you are not vegan or vegetarian that could be really upsetting," one said.

"My kids would be absolutely traumatized if they saw that sign, it's really not funny."







Another said that seeing Peppa representing a food item would "make a lot of children question food. I support that but damn this is pretty sick."






Peppa Pig is a cultural icon in the UK as well as in the USA, featuring her (secretly very tall) family and friends.

In fact, she is so popular in the USA, that children have unexplainably begun speaking with British accents in the USA.






Gordon Street Cafe has not commented on their use of Peppa.

White House Slammed After Replacing Obama Portrait With Painting Of Trump's Assassination Attempt

The White House is facing heavy criticism after it posted a video on X showing off a new painting of President Donald Trump's assassination attempt last summer—that is now hanging where an official portrait of former President Barack Obama was once displayed.

The portrait of Obama, unveiled in 2022 during former President Joe Biden’s administration, remains on display in the White House but has been relocated. Originally hung near the staircase to the presidential residence on the State Floor, it has been moved to the opposite wall—where a portrait of former President George W. Bush once hung.

Pedestrian crosswalks across Silicon Valley in northern California are, funnily enough, mocking billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg after hackers programmed them to play fake messages.

The unexpected messages were heard in Palo Alto, Redwood City, and Menlo Park—home to Zuckerberg's expansive Meta headquarters. In one instance, a Musk impersonator offered passing pedestrians a Tesla Cybertruck in exchange for friendship.
