A Christchurch mother was left with some explaining to do when her son came back with a bag of lollies from the local dairy.
In amongst the candy snakes and milk bottles were a bunch of lollies that would be more suited for a hens night.
Seven year old Tyson Vincent thought he was pretty lucky to be allowed a lolly mixture from the local dairy last night.
As he worked his way through them his mum and dad noticed his mixture should have had an R18 rating.
“I just looked over and I just seen my son putting a penis lolly into his mouth,” says his mother, Natasha Vincent.
“He said to me ‘Mummy is that a penis is that a Daddy part’ and I was like ‘yes Tyson’,” she says.
There were three of the penis shaped lollies in the $1 mixture.
“At first we sort of laughed it off a bit and afterwards I was thinking this is a bit disgusting, this is in my child’s lollies, the dairy owner should be more aware of that,” says Ms Vincent.
They bought five more mixtures and found three more of the offending sweets.
3 News also bought some bags from the dairy. Out of eight, in two $1.50 mixtures we found 2 more penis lollies.
Wondering if perhaps we'd over-reacted, we asked Christchurch people what they thought the sweets resembled.
The owner of the dairy says he had no idea the lollies were in the mixtures and removed them immediately
He says he buys his lollies from several different importers, and isn't sure who sold him the jelly genitalia.
