like the pillsbury doughboy, only not so white.

nestled unabashedly next to the nesquik hot chocolate is the banania brand's hot chocolate/cereal/banana thingy. apparently that logo is just a logo like any other--like the nestle bunny next to it, or the pillsbury doughboy. that is totally outrageous!

people have said stuff about how the racism in france plays out very differently than it does in the states. you see, in the u.s. everyone's always worrying about being pc, so they watch what they say. but they still think it. they're still afraid when they see the black guy coming the other way, or they're constantly searching for the current politically correct term to use. in france, they're less ashamed of their racism, which may or may not be a good thing. i mean, if they voice it, then it's easier for someone to point out exactly what's wrong than if it were completely latent. but then you come across a logo like the one above, and you're like what the fuck? i mean seriously.

this post may be controversial. i'm not sure. we shall see.
