Publix censors graduation cake to remove the cum from "Summa Cum Laude"
Cara Koscinksi ordered a graduation cake from the John's Island Publix, requesting the phrase "Congrats Jacob! Summa Cum Laude Class of 2018". Publix ruined the order by removing "cum", because "cum" is "profane."
A $70 cake!! He earned a 4.79 GPA. Publix refused to write the words Summa Cum Laude because I was using profanity! They put three dashes instead of the word!
How utterly ridiculous and I will be speaking to a manager for a refund. Shame on you Publix for turning an innocent
Latin phrase into a total embarrassment for having to explain to my son and others (including my 70 year old mother) about this joke of a cake. My son was humiliated!!! I seriously couldnt make this crap up!!!!
What better day to explain "cum" to great grandma?
