One Colorado woman's love for tofu has been judged X-rated by state officials. Kelly Coffman-Lee wanted to tell the world about her fondness for bean curd by picking certain letters for her license plate. She asked for her plate to say: "ILVTOFU." But the Division of Motor Vehicles blocked her request because they thought the combination of letters could be interpreted as profane.
Department of Revenue spokesman Mark Couch said, "We don't allow 'FU' because some people could read that as street language for sex."
Officials meet periodically to ensure state plates stay free of letters that abbreviate gang slang, drug terms or obscene phases.
Well, I see their point, but how sad is that? All she wanted to do was promote her a staple in her families diet because they are vegans.
