George Bush doesn't care about African Basil. I hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see African Basil, they say it's looting. See General Basil, they say it's looking for food.

I work at the WF in Union Square, so I see how many people have been buying that basil-- a LOT. People seem to really love it. We've had a few chefs from heavyweight restaurants come in recently and they were using it in some bigtime recipes. I haven't tried it, but maybe I should...

The line between offensive and pantently stupid has just been vaulted.
