Maybe I'm mistaken, but I wasn't aware that the City Council was the group responsible for the terminology used on restaurant menus.

The guy’s silly rant went viral. Once everyone has a good chortle, people will completely forget-

And move on...

It’s a joke that was funny and nobody is making fun of Nebraska. Let’s maybe calm down a bit.
