The sexy sweet wrappers with lime is clearly enjoying himself.

Simon Simpkins, a dad of two, said he was shocked at the "pornographic" poses when he bought Haribo's MAOAM sweets for his children.
Mr Simpkins of Pontefract, West Yorkshire, told The Sun: "The lemon and lime are locked in what appears to be a carnal encounter.
"The lime, who I assume to be the gentleman in this coupling, has a particularly lurid expression on his face.
"I demanded to see the shop manager and, during a heated exchange, my wife became quite distressed and had to sit down in the car park."
But Haribo hit back telling the newspaper the "fun" packaging was introduced in Germany in 2002.
It added: "The jovial MAOAM man is very popular with fans, both young and old."
Ah those wacky Germans...
.
A sense of humor detected in Germany? That’s something you don’t see every day.

(This was maybe 40 years ago...) My grandmother showed me a trick whereby if you folded the package correctly from land’o’lakes butter, the gal’s knees appeared to be something else. Does that still work today?
Poor like guy is just trying to pop the cherries. What’s so wrong about that? :O)
Well, whatever they’re doing, they’re having a good time!
like = little
"The lime, who I assume to be the gentleman in this coupling, has a particularly lurid expression on his face.
That's awfully heterosexist to assume that there should be one and only one "gentleman" in any coupling. In fact, the use of "coupling" discriminates against those who like it in groups. (Just wait until he sees the grape package - they're in bunches.)
"I demanded to see the shop manager and, during a heated exchange, my wife became quite distressed and had to sit down in the car park."
Was she distressed by the packages or by her idiot husband?
ok that’s a bit weird
My money’s on the idiot husband.
Besides all the fruits are homosexual. No problem.
I’ve seen that lurid expression before on a guava and a banana.
`Mr. Simpkins and the Lascivious Fruits’ No, that sends people to the dictionary.
`Simon and the Lurid Limes’: band & recording contract!
It’s a threesome too! ;)
Ping for later.
Dear me. I'm about sick of living in the UK. People here are panty-waists. Maybe it's time to move on to sunnier climes and better food....
The man has a dirty mind, I think he should take it out and wash it.
You’re more than welcome here. We need rational conservatives here outside Atlanta Georgia.
Sunny, cost of living is low and the further you get away from the city, the more rational folks are, and friendly too.
I lived in England for 3 months, (during desert storm) and found the food quite disgusting, albeit a good portion was on the (Royal) Air Force base.
Mutton...blech!
I’m from Georgia. Griffin actually. I grew up there. Left almost 20 years ago. Will probably never go back to the States. Big world to see. Not very much time to do it in. Still want to live in Japan, India, South America, Mexico and go back to Africa for a while. Life’s just too short.
Wow....small world...I’m in Covington.
I’m from NC, lived in Korea, Germany...visited most of Europe...it’s indeed a big world to see in that regard!
Gross!!
Exactly !!!
If I hadn't been asked to look at it sexually (by the article), I never would have thought of it. Now, with the sex act thought in my mind, yes, I can see it.
Without pre-conceived notions, let's ask a bunch of 4 to 12 year olds what they see (the intended market).
If this is the biggest outrage that this guy can come up with in today's world, he really needs to just sit down until he can better cope with being involved with life today. I really wonder what he does for a living ?
I have serious doubts he has ever lived.
Are you saying you have doubts because you do not believe the article, or because you doubt this guys involvement in life outside of a sofa and Oprah?
Put the lime in the coconut and call me in the morning.
"The Land O' Lakes package was central to a prank practiced among American school children for many decades. First, the lower three sides of the box which the Indian girl holds in front of her are incised with a sharp knife, so as to make a flap which can be lifted. Then the lower part of the box can be rolled up so that the knees show through the opening, or the knees can be cut off of another image of the maiden (each box bore several images) then pasted to the reverse side of the first, cut-out image. When the flap is lifted, it appears that the girl's breasts are exposed. This was sometimes called the "Indian butter trick." - Wikipedia
It’s not just the butter.
We used to do the same thing with our milk cartons in grade school.
Cut a flap so the box she was holding would lift up.
Instant peep show!
Funny stories. I don’t know what made me remember it. And I don’t know what made my grandmother share the secret (how to fold the box or whatever), when I was probably not more than about 10-12 years old. Probably dates us, huh? I might have to buy some land-o-lakes butter and give the box to my 25 year old son. HA
Has now turned out to be a hoax by the company themselves...
Hoax.
