Can Cheese Be Racist?

[GM1955]

I don't like racism but I love the way Thailand is completely non PC, in the UK they band golliwog's which to me had no racist intent whatsoever.

Thailand would doubtfully ban such a toy.

Probably England does not want their girls taking a black doll to bed.

It would probably mug her during the night.

Was watching Casey Stoner, Pedrosa and Rossi during the last MotoGP race in Spain and noticed this logo. I guess the Spanish has a new addition to the Missionary Style.

I remember the slogan on the Darkie Toothpaste ad......"Black but good".

[JUDAS]

'Sit and Go' toilet paper always makes me smile when I see it. I'm just waiting for some wizz kid in the company's marketing department to come up with the idea of inserting an H in the first word.

I haven't seen "sit and go", not that I'm a big browser of toilet paper, but have seen

I guess it all depends on what you ate the day before.

Which is exactly what I meant to type

I didn't believe that could be for real, but it is.

Didn't know you can buy cheese in thailand!!! I live in Roi-Et and ive been looking for ages for some cheese!!!

I'm sure there are a few posters here who remember "Darkie" toothpaste, with the black guy in the top hat on the label.

Then some years ago, without explanation, it became "Darlie", and the man in the top hat suddenly took on a deathly pallor!

I don't want to go off topic nisakiman, and have no wish to offend, but regarding your avatar; if my wife was that ugly I'd shave my dog's arse and teach it to walk backwards.

Coon is Australian and is named after a person.

It appears that nobody is interested in the reason why this thread was started, even though it is rather mundane.

Here is an edited link about Coon cheese (I'm sure some people will have done some 'googling' by now);

Seriously, if a man's name is Coon his name is Coon, and he wants to name his cheese company Coon, no biggie. Lots of Chinese are named Jew and they come up with some interesting business names from that.

Tesco, BigC.

Tesco in Roi-Et only stocks processed cheese! YUK!! And we dont have a 'big C' in Roi-Et!

It's ironic that this thread was made to paint Thais as racist etc.. then when it turns out the cheese is from Australia all the bitter old naysayers immediately flee the thread.

Wintermute,

this thread was meant to be funny. ANyone with two eyes can read on my originial pic, the the cheese comes from Aus.

Stop taking yourself so seriously. Nobody else is.

Ps. I think I like your brother better, "Forummute"

Uh no you're just annoyed someone is calling you out on what your intention was. You even made it sound like the cheese wasn't sold in any western stores. Nowhere in the original pic was it stated where the cheese was from and you left that out on purpose to generate some controversy.

I guess the passion fruit liqueur called "Passoa" would be a nice addition in Thailand.

I have to point out it does say " Australia's Favourite Cheese " on the pack in the photo mate.

Does anybody remember the Darkie brand toothpaste before the name was discretely changed to Darlie? Who says Thais can`t be racist?

[newsite12]

This thread makes me think back to my backpacking days in Africa. A place near Livingstone in Malawi where we stayed for a week or so called Wanki.

I remember the butcher on the main road called 'Wanki Meat' which had a big picture in the window of the proprietor holding a huge white pudding.

Never bothered me really,

I have a photo in the UK... pity I never thought to digitize it... You would laugh.
