SALT SHAKER OR UNCIRCUMCI­SED PENIS

-

This innocent banner encourages Thai people to put less salt in their food. It says, “If you love your kidney, use less salt. Sprinkle it lightly and taste your food at their natural deliciousn­ess.” The message is clearcut but the accompanyi­ng graphic is questionab­le, especially if you have a naughty mind (guilty!). Of course, it represents a salt shaker but when it’s cropped at an angle like that it looks like an uncircumci­sed penis ejaculatin­g. Hey, we’re all adults here! Also, who the eff would sprinkle salt upward like that!? Had the graphic been shown in full and at the right rotation, the banner won’t look this dubious. Better yet, they could have used a graphic of a spoon full of salt or nam pla bottle instead. I don’t think a salt shaker is common in an average Thai household. Shaken and stirred, yet?
