Another Chocolate President...in Azerbaijan?

Continuing the first chocolate president thread...


...catch this story about Azerbaijan!
In the capital city of Azerbaijan, a new chocolate cake called Obama has appeared for sale, writes Day.Az.

For 15 manats (more than 600 rubles or $18.59) everyday Azerbaijanis can now purchase "Obama" and cut him into pieces to be eaten while drinking tea.

It had been previously reported that the name of the US president has become a popular brand. In honor of Obama, streets, barber shops, schools and even a grade of heroin have been renamed.

Can you print "vulva" in Azerbaijan?

Apparently, you can.

Don't let the hullabaloo related to the word "bitter" make you think there is not other news in the world...

For example, the British nation is insulting Azerbaijan again. I am not sure if you know but...
A pub named Camel's toe which initially seems to mean what it means -"A toe of a camel" functions in the very center of Baku, several meters away from the passage, at 22. Mamedaliyev street.

But, in fact the name has a double meaning. The Camel's Toe has a meaning "the clear visible presence of a woman's vulva as a consequence of wearing overly right pants (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_toe).

While some of my seedier friends had alerted me to this insult, that isn't all! Brave journalists entered the establishment despite rumors of prostitutes.
It should be noted that we did not notice any prostitute in the pub. Yet there were several curious moments. The walls of the pub were decorated with different flags including the flags of Scotland, England, Great Britain and Russia. All, except Azerbaijan. The said fact proves the direct violation of the law "On rules of use of flags of other countries and international organization in the territory of Azerbaijan". Perhaps, the pubs owners have no idea of the law. But the fact that the pub does not bear the flag of the country, it functions in, says that the bar owners do not respect the attributes of Azerbaijan.
No idea of the law indeed! Those Brits are elitist and out of touch!

"Bathing in Black Gold"

I miss being in Azerbaijan for my regular bath in crude oil.

The therapeutic benefits are a product of natural antibiotic and anti-inflammatory agents that seep into the skin


And they re-cycle it too so it is environmentally friendly. What could be better?
