IF YOU CAN READ GERMAN

Lately there has been a rumble-storm in certain circles over rumours that Dunhill tobacco products might soon be going the way of the Dodo.
Not literally, of course, because the reader with knowledge will know that we Dutch ate the dodo (it was delicious!), and tobacco is not food (unlike the dodo, which was delicious).

We regret the dodo. We should have saved a few for all of you Anglos, it would have given you something much better to eat than the turkey, which is quite ghastly. Turkeys, good grief. Stupid Anglos.

The dodo was delicious.


Anyhow, if you can read German, there is a thoughtful discussion here about Dunhill tobacco: Werden Dunhills (vorerst) eingestellt?.
It's on the Pfeife-Tabak forum, also of interest.


Another name for the dodo is 'walghvogel'. Which could far more appropriately be an appellation for the turkey.
Which is usually om van te walgen.
Niet te vreten. Bah!


The dodo was delicious.


Sorry.
