Tasteless. And, yes, cheesy.

What kinds of souvenirs can you buy at the new September 11 Memorial Museum—built, if anyone is wondering, on the very site where nearly 3,000 people died?

Stuff like this:

That, ladies and gentlemen, is a cheese plate.

A CHEESE PLATE. For serving cheese. At dinner parties. You’ll note three tiny hearts dot the map, showing (subtly, of course) where the terrorists struck in New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, DC.

In addition:

The shop has more common museum gift shop items, like museum t-shirts and museum rubber bands. One visitor told the Post yesterday, “As rotten and heartless as it may seem, it’s always about money. Educational books and T-shirts and posters that say, ‘Never forget 9/11’ are OK, but the dog vests and the cheap earrings need to go.”

Museum spokesman Michael Frazier explained the Washington Post that the items in the shop were “carefully selected… To care for the Memorial and Museum, our organization relies on private fundraising, gracious donations and revenue from ticketing and carefully selected keepsake items for retail.” He also noted that during the period where 9/11 workers, survivors and victims’ families visited the museum, “[m]any of our guests from the 9/11 community have visited the shop and purchased a keepsake from their historic experience.”

Don’t like the cheese plate?  How about a stuffed animal to cuddle?
