Too tasty to firebomb

So Danish pastries are now 'Roses of the Prophet Mohammed' in Iran. Why does the croissant get such a free ride in Europe? It is, after all, the exact antithesis of the rebranded Jihad Pastries. The croissant was created to celebrate the lifting of the siege of Vienna, as the encroaching Islamic armies was turned back from Europe. The croissant is a deliberate, contemptuous insult to a religion that historically is one of Europe's great enemies. The purchaser of a croissant takes a mocking representation of the holy symbol for Religion-o'-Peace(TM) and shoves it into his or her filthy kaffir mouth. Much worse than pointing your foot at someone, you'd think. Maybe banning it or calling it pain au beurre or something anodyne and history-free would stir up to much real history in the process? Or maybe it is just far too tasty to trifle with. Nice to think that even hate-filled zealots can be won round by a good recipe.
