Kelly Coffman Lee loves Tofu. The “Bean-Curd” that is consumed by many and is usually associated in vegetarian living is something she wants to tell people about. Therefore when it was time to get a new license plate, she figured – Why not get a plate that really shows my love for this product.

She went to the Colorado DMV and signed up for ILUVTOFU. The DMV looked at that – and came back and said no. Not because they are against Tofu, but because of the alternate meaning to the plate. I LUV to FUnk.

OK, it might not be Funk. But you can make the change. Actually – before you chastise this – it was probably a good idea for the DMV to make this decision. Think about it. You’re driving down the street with your ILUVTOFU plate and you get all these cars come up and honk at you. If you are a pretty good lookin person, you might get someone to come up and make some lude comments.

Maybe TOFUILUV would be a better choice. When I signed up for my custom plates, I had to write down 4 choices just in case my first choice is already taken. I wonder if she got another version of the plate name.

For now, if you love Tofu, you might want to think about how to say things when you get your license plate.
