EPIC FAIL: ThinkGeek Gets Cease and Desist Letter Over Unicorn Meat

The National Pork Board is angered over the misrepresention of unicorn meat.  Specificaly, they don't like it being refered to or discribed as being 'the new white meat'...because somehow people are going to corelate this to pork.  They are so angered that they sent a cease and desist letter to ThinkGeek, the company selling the product.  The joke is on them, however, being that the product in question is actually an April Fools joke and is not actually being sold.  Here is the first page of the c&d, which happened to be 12 pages long, in all it's halarity:

ThinkGeek has also posted the following apology:

"It was never our intention to cause a national crisis and misguide American citizens regarding the differences between the pig and the unicorn," said Scott Kauffman, President and CEO of Geeknet. "In fact, ThinkGeek's canned unicorn meat is sparkly, a bit red, and not approved by any government entity."

You'd think they would have gotten one for either the Dharma Initiative Clock or the Tribbles 'n' Bits.  It just goes to show you how stupid the members of the National Pork Board are.  Someone needs to explain the concept behind April Fools to them.

ThinkGeek has declared this to be the best c&d they have ever gotten, and are offering $10 off a purchase of $40 or more to all of those "offended by [their] portrayal of Unicorn Meat as 'the new white meat'".  Use the code PORKBOARD to get your discount.
