We hear daily how everything possible is being done to stamp out racism in this country. Well the following passage is from an online advert by a company called FIREBOX.
"Everyone loves candy floss. As far as naughty-but-nice nostalgic treats go, it's right up there with toffee apples and giant gobstoppers. The trouble is getting your gob round a woolly mass of scrumptious spun sugar usually involves visiting the local fair. And trudging through puddles of diesel amidst swarms of screaming teenagers is about as much fun as riding the chariots after a hot dog supper.
That's why you need to get spinning with our ingenious Candy Floss Maker. With this idiot-proof contraption you'll be making funfair-style candy floss in minutes. Simply add regular granulated sugar and switch it on. That's all there is to it. Well, almost.
As the machine heats up, the central head begins to spin, forcing liquid sugar through its tiny perforations. The instant the threads of sugar hit the air they cool and re-solidify, causing a web of sugary threads to develop in the dishwasher-friendly collection bowl. All you have to do is gather up the yummy wisps on your candy floss cone and get munching. The whole process is really rather wondrous.
The resultant candy floss tastes exactly the same as the woolly, melt in the mouth stuff you wolfed down as a kid. The only difference is you won't have to blag 50p off your mum in order to watch some old hag with a face like a spat out toffee, drop fag ash in the bowl. Speaking of additional ingredients, a dash of food colouring is all you need to make pink, blue or whatever colour you fancy floss."
I wonder what their adverts for pakistani or African products read like, or perhaps they feel the fairground community is the only one that it is acceptable to denigrate and abuse?
