phallic fruit snacks


Is it just juvenile old me, or does anyone else see something disturbing about this image?

Discuss.

There's an advert on tv at the moment with the same kid making that fruit.. thing. It's meant to be a rocket.

yes, but out of context, and with an unfortunately placed background...

Hilarious poster. if you want a little more childhood warping, tell me what the rabbits on these plates are doing? i had these growing up

http://www.gasolinealleyantiques.com/sports/images/golf/golf-bunnykins4.JPG

the story i heard (i dont really believe it) is that the original design was rejected and then used without permission. apparently the original designer snuck into the offices and swapped the template to these rabbits right before print as payback. seems that people loved them so the print was kept. i cant find anything to confirm this though. if anyone can shed some light, that'd be great.

we had a giggle when they put them up at work.
a few months ago the free magazine safeway puts out had a big close up picture of a melon or a peach or something, and i was like WTF when i came in and saw what appeared to be a whole rack of vagina on display in the produce section.

Quite apart from the fact that he's holding a home made, er, toy, I am disturbed by the phrase "fresh food kids".

The first thing I commented on after seeing the second half of that one was "... How are the carrot arms staying on when he picks it up to eat it?"
I mean, he PLACES them next to the celery stick, he doesn't glue them on or anything! So how?!

He can't! The sultana eyes + etc stay on of their own accord somehow, too, and there's not enough room for toothpicks in them.
