Norwegian store forced to apologise for stocking realistic human limbs in its frozen meat section as part of a Halloween joke

A Norwegian shop has been forced to apologise to children and their families after it packed realistic looking severed plastic hands and feet in butchers' plastic trays and sold them as part of its Halloween collection.

Furious parents were horrified when they discovered the severed limbs in the meat freezers which terrified children looking for Halloween costumes and decorations.

Europris, which has stores across Norway, has now been forced to withdraw the range of fake, shrink-wrapped body parts.

And in other news, Norway has joined in the rest of the world in a PC moment. Humor is no longer tolerated because it might offend some individual. Now, about those Washington Redskins.

Hey, it’s Halloween. If I were a customer in this store, I’d order a “leg of Sam” for dinner.

Well, if you do that, I should be able to order labchops from my favorite Chinese restaurant.

Kids should be scared on Halloween.

Working adults should be terrified if anyone comes at them wearing an Obama mask.

Not all children are afraid of severed limbs. A Brownie made this for a Girl Scout event ... and it won 1st place.

Try an order of “Leg Rolls”. Also “Fried Lice”.

If your waiter’s name is One Hung Low, take it easy on him. He has a rupture of the groin and walks slowly.

Geez, I would have loved to have bought one of those severed limbs packages and kept it as a souvenir.

“...displayed in the meat freezers which terrified children...”

Just wait a few more weeks when the stacks of lutefisk are put out for the holidays!
