Dunkin Donuts Yanks Rachael Ray Ad for All the Wrong Reasons

Remember when most of you lost your minds over whether or not it's OK for hipsters to sport Kaffiyehs. (The conclusion: it's fine to wear them, but they tend to overpower an outfit as an accessory.)

Well, scenesters, get ready to put down the straw, wipe your nostrils, and head over to Crossroads to sell your black-and-white Kaffiyehs. Sausage-fingered Food Network star, Rachael Ray love them. And she just had her Dunkin' Donuts ad yanked after several hundred or so mentally-estranged Americans complained after seeing her wearing the Arab headdress while hawking delicious Dunkin' Donuts pastries.

Michelle Malkin, mind-numbingly dumb FOX news commenter/hole, went nuts over Ray's scarf, saying, "the keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad." Or, as SFist already pointed out, it is/was a fashion trend.

This is too bad. Dunkin' Donuts are second to none.
