Indulgent SoHo chocolatier Vosges has discontinued the Vincent Gallo truffle collection, or rather, renamed it the Collection Italiano. The eponymous, taleggio cheese-flavored, uncircumcised penis-shaped Gallo has become the Rooster, and the collection's other truffle flavors -- Tuscan fennel pollen, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Sicilian sea salt -- have been translated in the other direction.
When asked why the name had been changed, a Vosges representative stated only that "We have ended our relationship with Mr. Gallo." Which, when you think about it, is the best choice in all sorts of situations.
