    The second Winnipeg general strike happened in 1927. Salisbury House introduced sandwiches shaped like boobs and called them “nips”. The moral panic and rioting was short lived and largely forgotten after Sal’s agreed to remove the gumdrop nipples from the hamburger buns, however the name “nips” still remains. The newspaper coverage was considered too pornographic to retain, so it was covered up.
