Parents took to social media to share images of the tool, called the extruder, which came as part of Play-Doh’s Sweet Shoppe Cake Mountain play set and which parents agree shares a strong resemblance to a male’s private parts.

Sometimes, an extruder is just an extruder.

These women need to get their minds out of the gutter. :)

Okay kids, we have a special surprise. Mrs. Obama has brought Play-Doh!

[OrangeHoof]

Gad. Play-Doh thought they were Playgirl.

True. But a designer has bosses who review his work.

There are a limited number of basic shapes in the world.

All of them [except for squares, possibly] can “look like something else” if you squint....and wish really hard.

That's just wrong.

LOL!

Some pervert working at Playdoh is somewhere, rolling on the floor every day, laughing his extruder off..

Condoms aren’t balloons unless you completely distort their purpose and make them balloons for your weird political statement...but an extruder is really just that, and there’s only so much redesign that can be done to it, especially one meant to be used by children, to prevent loonies from seeing obscenity in it.

“This seems to happen an awful lot and I’m thinking its not a mistake.”

Agree...gets them on the map regarding marketing, not a bad move.

I'm not sure whether I'm more concerned by the push-trigger penis or the butt-plug. Or the way he's got his mouth open.

Dear lord that toy is wrong on SO many levels...

From the article:

Play-Doh, upon receiving strong feedback after Christmas, issued a statement on its Facebook page to address the issue. The statement read in part: “We have h(e)ard some consumer feedback … and are in the process of updating all future Play-Doh products with a different tool.”

Talk about a poor choice of words.
