Candy #2

The second story related to candy was sent in by Daniel Quock. Now to understand this, you'll need to go check out this link:

That's quite an eyeful, isn't it?

It seems that Haribo, the manufacturer of "Maoam sweets," has redesigned its wrapper to show a lemon and lime, well, getting some citrus on the hang low. Grating some peel. Getting their fruit on.

I’m stopping there, even though I don’t want to.

Graduates of St Blasien Jesuit College (near Freiburg, Germany) sent a protest letter to Haribo. Here are two excerpts from the article:
The students were especially opposed to the lemon flavoured chews, which "undoubtedly show a green figure having sex with a lemon.”

"The lemon, which from the drawing looks female, is obviously enjoying it with the greatest of pleasure."

Hey, maybe the lemon’s just faking it.

Then there’s the other wrapper, which shows two cherries and that lucky, lucky lime engaged in something that common decency forbids me from mentioning by name. Although I will say that it rhymes with “cunnilingus.”

Damned typos.

On top of all that, I think those cherries are twins. Man, I hate that lime.
