  • I think you can still buy it but they changed the black boy on the package to a white boy. Thats stupid i know people may think the ad is racist what with the black crows. But since when has it been racist to put a black boy on a package. Black people get offended when you include them on something and they also get offended when you dont include them on something. Or is this just the goverment guessing someones feelings? I remember when they banned a packet of only blackcurrent jelly babies.

  • i remember that too when the jelly baby thing happened there was an uproar because of it.pathetic to be honest its a fucking piece of jelly and nothing else no motives intended.stupid really

  • Loved this ad when I was a kid, still love it now, never thought it was racist and I'm mixed race.

  • Ah, thats good old family Racism (Peter Griffin)

  • Liberties

  • @Updehill This mroneandonly83 formerly TheFirecogicuk. I am very much a black man. How can I be a lost fool for buying a drink that I loved since I were a child?

  • @Scullnblades It must be the goverment, because I'm black I loved this ad as much today than I did all those years ago.

  • @kevphillips02 the Gollywog is still sold today, it's just called a golly now. It hasn't been banned. What, you want it to enter mainstream again? Most soft toys and teddies are replaced by Xboxes now m8, sorry.

  • @NIR111Class Sorry, did you see a giant campaign to get rid of the advert? ~Do you remember black people complaining? No, so stop stereotyping. Next you'll be claiming all muslims are terrorists.

    I used to love this advert as a kid, I didn't see anything wrong with it. Of course now I can see, but at the time, it seemed ok! Just like I used to make fun of that Ginger kid at school. I used to think it was ok, but now I can see it wasn't.

  • @Scullnblades You can get it in Iceland and Asda, there dont have any boys on it any more Just the crows on it now I beleive

  • It's implied to be a cotton picking slave, with his skin massively overdarkened to emphasise it - it's not nice right? I don't think its oversensitive to think that.

  • Black people get offended if they're in an advert

    Black people get offended if they're not on an advert

    What is this I don't even-
