Do you know the next line in “Eeny, meeny, miney, mo”?
The makers of Galaxy ice cream have withdrawn billboard adverts featuring the phrase since anti-racism groups protested.

“Catch a n****r by his toe” is the next line of the poem in one version which used to be popular in the Deep South.

Newer versions replace n****r with “fishy” and “tiger” but the first line still offends the black community, says pressure group Blink.

Masterfoods apologised and explained “As far as we were concerned, in this day and age, the words were commonly used to show the difficulty in making a choice”.

Ah I don't pay for ice creams these days. Just wait for Friday and get one free out the freezer at work... Some of them new Cornettos are nice.

I'd love to, but we have to turn down the most deserving of causes.... Unilever has a set donations policy (mainly we don't do it.)

I love Twisters, ain't had one in ages though. FABs aren't too bad either, anybody remember the adverts for them with "Smashie & Nicey" or whatever they were called?

Oh gawd, I used to hate them. They had to be one of Enfield's most annoying creations.

I remember when I was youger we had two ice cream vans and one day they'd had enough of each other so they both got out and had an argument in the middle of the street. Ahhh those were the days.

:D hehe thats really funny. I used to love watching the ice cream van come last summer at my old house and all the kids go racing into their houses to get money and then racing back out again to catch the ice cream van before it leaves
