From Friend Ken, including his reaction. I agree totally.
Our culture has fallen off a cliff if a cheese store thinks its 'clever' to market its product in this manner.

A NOTE FROM TIM:
Notice the little dig at the end to Donohue "have a blessed day". A person who says what she said thinks religion is a joke or worse, and that last was sarcasm in the extreme. What a filthy scumbag.
I'll bet this woman supported the attacks on Christian bakers and pizza makers and the like, too.
e'mail the store owner at info@bedfordcheeseshop.com.
A NOTE FROM JACK KEMP:
This isn't going to be accepted, even by NY standards of behavior. They will lose business for such a crude remark. Fancy cheese stores are frequented by people who consider themselves somewhat cultured (whether the customers are or not). This could get a public protest and be in the NY Daily News and NY Post within days.
FROM DANA:
I hope you're right. But remember, Leftists absolutely hated Mother Teresa because she did what they believed the state should do.
A NOTE FROM DAVID DICKINSON:
The exercise of free speech is not always to our liking, but it is permitted. What our wonderful free market capitalist system permits, of course, is the equally powerful exercise of spending discretion. But you can fuggedaboudit on the apology, I'm pretty certain that whatever would be offered would not exactly drip with sincerity.
A REPLY FROM DANA:
I'm sure this store will get plenty of business in its own neighborhood, which is all that really matters. You and I wouldn't go into it, of course.
New Yorkers prize their cheese shops, or used to, at least. I have (or maybe had) a novel about a guy moving to The Apple where one of the main themes was where the protagonist is told "you've got to move to [such and such a neighborhood] because there's this really, really great cheese shop. Johnny Carson really loves it." Eventually the guy moves there and finds out that the cheese shop recently moved to Sioux Lookout, Montana (not making up that city name!). Or maybe it was North Dakota.
FROM TIM:
The guy should just have moved to Wisconsin if he wanted cheese that badly.
