I’ll get away from the constant war/protest posts eventually, but I came across this report on CNN and had to share it: Brazilian protesters toss eclairs at U.S. consulate
More than 2,000 anti-war protesters on Friday marched to the U.S. Consulate, where they burned American flags and tossed balloons filled with pink paint.
The protesters also threw chocolate eclairs at the consulate, shouting “Let’s bombard the consulate!” In Portuguese, chocolate eclairs are called “bombas de chocolate,” which translates as “chocolate bombs.”
