101 dumbest moments in business

This list from Business 2.0 of the "101 dumbest moments in business" is pretty good. To their credit, they list themselves running one of the Enron execs on their cover as an item on the list.

Quote:
75. Unilever subsidiary Lipton approves an ad in which a man standing in line for communion holds a bowl of onion dip, presumably to improve the taste of the body of Christ. Under protest, Lipton withdraws the ad.
I want a copy!

(note.. when I clicked the link to double-check that I posted it correctly, I noticed the list is labelled as "humor." I suppose it is funny, or I wouldn't have posted it, but AFAIK everything on the list really happened!)
