I dont find it offensive at all but neither is it funny to me. It is very childish humor, IMO,and the kind of thing mostly kids would find funny. Personally I prefer more sohisticated humor.

I don't see why they are offended and complaining. They eat the flesh and drink the blood of Jesus every time they take the sacrament....some believing what they eat, literally changes into flesh and blood after eating it.
Maybe if they served the bread/ wafer with sausage, they would get more people to attend.
Having been an ardent "Outlander" fan for years, I have been wondering why time-traveling Claire and her time-traveling daughter Brianna, explained a "hot dog" to mid-1700's Jamie Fraser as "something like a sausage roll."
The sausage roll looks delicious! (I'm more interested in the thing itself than the sacrilegious implications.) Is it eaten with condiments (catsup, mustard, relish, sauerkraut, etc.) like a regular hot dog?
Prior to that, my best friend and I went to London in 1992, thereby fulfilling a long-awaited girlhood dream. However, she turned out to be very ethnocentric, and would only eat at American restaurants like McDonald's (where one cheeseburger could set you back two pounds) or various pizza chains.
I was a lot more adventurous when I ventured forth the next time. And it was SO worth it, in all the countries I visited. I spoke at least a little of the language of every country I visited, so I was able to peruse menus, ask simple questions, and enjoyed everything. In Scotland, I even tried haggis, although several people on our tour flatly refused to try it, insisting that it was "gross." It looked kind of gross, but tasted good. And yes, I know what-all is in it. Not keen on bashed neeps, though.
