"&pizza at U Street, a local pizza chain, faced backlash for unveiling 'Marion Berry Knots,' a dessert item themed around former mayor Marion Barry's drug arrest. The marketing included references to powdered sugar, drawing criticism for being disrespectful and racist. Despite initial resistance, the chain eventually pulled the dessert from its menu and issued an apology." - Emily Venezky
