The Berger and Wyse food cartoons are a diet of neurotic vegetables, omnivorous Godzillas and restaurant parody. This single-panel comic appears weekly in the Guardian (UK), and has been published as an anthology by Absolute Press (an imprint of Bloomsbury). There are some recurring themes and characters, but stylistically this cartoon is free to roam to wherever food plays a part. What do tomatoes think of Andy Warhol? Is it upsetting to fruit that "bananas" means crazy? Can you eat Schrödingers cat food? Someone has to answer these burning questions.

Perhaps they could have used “Mohammed”?

They’re Brits. They’re using their own most common (and less offensive, there?) idiom. Don’t assume everything is written for your culture, just because it’s written in your language. I’m sure there are people who are laughing pretty hard, that anyone is freaking out more about “christ” than about the “licking the honeypot” visual central to the cartoon.

My choice is to cancel this strip for using the name of Christ as a curse.

Actually, “Christ” is a job description, not a name.
