EU to rename Bombay mix

Nutty officials want to rename Bombay mix Mumbai mix — to make the snack politically correct.

They say the Indian city of Bombay has been called Mumbai since 1995 so the old name could offend because it dates back to colonial rule.

A source said: “The EU is considering revising the labelling of Bombay mix because Mumbai has been in the news a lot recently and people in Europe now realise that Mumbai is the new name for Bombay.”
