Group Says ‘Nogger’ Ice-Cream Ad Racist
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A Swedish rights group cried foul over advertisements for a liquorice ice-cream, saying the posters for “Nogger Black” were racist.
Not only could the name of the ice-cream bar made by GB Glace cause offence, but the posters, with graffiti-style text, lampooned black culture, the Center Against Racism said.

Maybe now they need to stop calling the Swedish brownie ice cream “lazy, welfare-sucking porch fudge” too.
