We Support Denmark!
http://www.webuydanish.rc4systems.net/ ^ | Me

Posted on 02/05/2006 6:58:57 PM PST by hiredhand

It was suggested on an earlier thread today that we start a "We Buy Danish" project of sorts. Freeper MarMema was going to start it, but she's watching the superbowl and I've got time at the moment so I'm going to kick this off.

The idea is that you go buy a Danish product and take a photo of yourself enjoying your Danish product so we can keep them on a gallery similar to that of the "We're Not Sorry" theme of the 2004 presidential elections. I've got bandwidth and space and so I'm going to host the photos.

In fact, we've already posted the first photo and statement of support to Denmark with respect to their recent troubles involving a comic strip (of all things!).

If you (or anybody you know) would like photos and statements in support of Denmark posted to the site, please send them to -

webuydanish@webuydanish.rc4systems.net

The URL for the site is at - http://www.gallery.rc4systems.net/webuydanish

Please make a best effort to keep gross profanity out of statements of support, but any and all sorts of weapons in the photos are not only permitted, but encourged. :-)

We've vowed in my house to buy ONE Danish product per week. This evening it was Havarti Dill cheese...mmmmmm! I'm scrounging for some Carlsberg lager next week though!

It's not Danish - but I was thinking, we ought to buy every single available copy of Rushdie's The Satanic Verses - enough to put it on the NYT Bestseller list.

Here is what I am doing to support Denmark. I went to two of our supermarkets and found specific products made in Denmark.

I then sent an email to my friends so they would not have to look up and down the aisles for Danish products.

I bought some today. It helps me wash away the SuperBowl tears!

I'm all for it!
Count me in!

Can someone post a list of items.
I'm not all that familiar with Danish products.
Thank you.

We lived in England throughout most of the 1990s and Ikea was VERY popular there. I wasn't fond of them personally, but we drank gallons of Carlsberg lager. :-)

In fact, in my ignorance I thought Carlsberg was British until I saw a product list on Michelle Malkin's web site!

I've furnished my house in Danish modern antiques. Does that count?

I love the idea of a Buy Danish campaign. Count me in.

And anyone with artistic skills should be encouraged to show a humorous pic of the jackasses reaping their final rewards.

Hey, now we know what reaaaaallly ticks them off. Let's run with it!

Scrounging for more Tuborg. Had to stick with Natty Ice for the game.

I love Ikea because I love putting cheap crap together with Elmer's and screws :)

To be fair; a few items I bought at the VA Ikea twenty years ago... well, lasted longer than expected.

Better than buying Chinese, IMHO.

Also, if you are a beer drinker, Denmark puts out two beers that are widely distributed in the U.S.

Carlsberg and Tuborg. I'm seeking those out on my next beer run.
