There's a recipe for Irish Car Bomb filled cupcakes on
the Serious Eats blog ...and people began complaining in the comments about the name. As in, it's inappropriate because it refers to the good old terrorist struggle in Ireland and all that.
It must be like one of those pictures you see, where some people see a vase, and others see two faces facing each other. Sure, the name isn't the most politically correct ever, but the recipe is based on the popular *drink*, not some made up handle out to offend the Irish. You might as well go to every bar and complain about it.
