Lebanese store discovers suspicious peppers, army blows them up

A shopper in a Lebanese supermarket discovered a very suspicious bag of peppers that said 'Israel' on it, and the Lebanese army was called in to blow it up. What? You think I'm making it up? Well, I'm not.
While shopping at Spinneys in the coastal city of Sidon, a man, who preferred to remain anonymous, discovered a bag of three kinds of peppers made in Israel.
Actually, if the moron knew how to read, he would know that two of the three came from Spain, which has an economy that's almost as big a basket case as Lebanon's....
He immediately contacted local authorities who in turn contacted the Lebanese Army.
Members of military intelligence and police arrived to Spinneys to discover 13 similar bags that have the word “Israel” printed on the sale tag.
Police also noticed that the international bar code for the items was scratched with a blue pen and a new code was handwritten on the bag. 
The case was then referred to the military judiciary for investigation into how the products made it through the customs department at the port or the airport.
Spinneys had a similar incident almost ten years ago when shoppers discovered mugs made in Israel being sold at the retailer.
Rumors that the yellow peppers were listening devices planted by the Mossad could not be confirmed.

But I wonder why they are bothering to check the ports. We all know how the peppers got there.

Heh.
