Walmart Pulls Foul-Mouthed Toy Cactus That Sings About Drugs
singing and dancing toy cactus is in the process of being taken off Walmart's website after the discovery was created that one of many songs featured references to drugs, as well as a few obscenities. How did this foul-mouthed plant manage to create it onto the website in the first place? Since the song wasn't in English, it absolutely was in Polish.
Ania Tanner bought the cactus on Walmart's website, thinking it is the perfect Christmas gift on her behalf granddaughter. Instead, Tanner, who's Polish however now lives in Ontario, was shocked to learn that the cactus was singing “Gdzie Jest Biały Węgorz,” toy that mimics baby a song from Polish rapper Cypis where he covers being on “five grams of cocaine.”
Tanner said that she requested a return from Walmart, which seems such as for instance a pretty reasonable request. She also said she hopes that the toy will not be sold anymore, as unsuspecting parents could accidentally be teaching their kids how exactly to be potty mouths in Poland.
“I recently don't want anybody before Christmas thinking, ‘Oh, this might be a great toy,' go online, order it, and have the same thing happen to them that happened in my experience,” she told CTV News.
When asked about the incident, a Walmart rep said that the merchandise was from the third-party seller and that the megastore was in the process of removing the cactus from their website because they looked further to the complaint. Having just checked, it does appear to be there are still singing and dancing cactuses available but it's possible why these are similar looking products that don't feature the coke-fueled rap songs.
