Funny Fruits

no, i cant read persian, but my friend just send me this link to BBC Persian with an explanation:

on friday april 24, oranges were sold in teheran like on any other friday. the oranges were packed in boxes saying "Place of Origin: Province of China". when people opened the oranges, they came across a sticker, they propably haven't seen for a long time: "Jaffa" - thats Israels biggest fruit exporter.

when authorities realized that, they tried to recollect all the oranges and even started an appeal on national TV.

shit happens!

but then again, these oranges are anything but shit. have a taste once you get across them. maybe on the next Israel Day which will be on may 7 - more info here soon with all 60 places in germany that will celebrate 100 years of Tel-Aviv and the 61st birthday of Israel.

So you want to boycott Israel?

That´s a strong one on the constant calls for boycotting Israel.

Could be a solution

As you might know, viral marketing is all around the internet. Here are two rather funny commercials that inofficially were spread by the brands marketing departments - I suppose.
