With a hellish display of advertising gone wrong, a “leading Swiss supermarket chain” has been “distributing mini-containers of coffee cream bearing portraits of Adolph Hitler…”
The Geneva Associated Press reports that the company, Migros, is now calling this an “unforgivable blunder,” and is blaming it on an “internal failure.”
Whatever that means…
At any rate, Migros is now wiping Hitler’s likeness off the face of its shelves, and “is breaking all ties with Karo-Versand, the small Swiss company that designed the collectible series.”
(The series also includes likenesses of Mussolini, lest Hitler become lonely.)
Not everyone was against these Hitler additives. Some were delighted to see him get creamed all over again.
