PC Pickle producer procures preferable prefix for product. Proper?

[url=http://www.takepart.com/article/2013/02/21/pickle-protest?cmpid=tp-ad-outbrain-general]Pickle Company to Distraught Mom: Yes, We’ll Change Our Name[/url] Someone doesn't like the word "midget" and the pickle company decided to be the bigger man about it. It's a small story I know. But if there is/was a word that you found offensive and saw it on a grocer's shelf.... Would YOU "do something about it"?

  • I'm never sure what word "those people" like to be referred to. Little people? Midgets? Dwarfs? "Little guy"? Though, the use of any of those as the name of a product would be unsettling for those people; I totally understand where they're coming from.
