Unicorn: The NEW white meat?

This is quite amusing.  The National Pork Board sent a letter to ThinkGeek for this last April Fool's joke, Unicorn meat, that they tagged as "The new white meat".  Apparently the National Pork Board thought that ThinkGeek was diluting their trademark, "The other white meat".
ThinkGeek in response, placed this on their website:
We'd like to publicly apologize to the NPB for the confusion over unicorn and pork--and for their awkward extended pause on the phone after we had explained our unicorn meat doesn't actually exist.

I say, I would have loved to have been on the phone when that call was made to explain that unicorn meat doesn't actually exist.  I don't think I could have kept from busting out laughing.
Santa Claus is VERY upset with the National Pork Board; all you naughty boys and girls should be expecting a lump of coal in your stockings this December 25th.
