A cock wrapped in bacon?

I am not sure how Mumsnet choose which advertisements to display, or whether they are targeted in any way.
I am at a loss to see why this one was chosen for me.
I accept that these are toys/ models but seriously a cock wrapped in bacon?
I am not a prude, vegan, and nor do I have any religious beliefs regarding pork, but I would have thought there was a reasonable chance that a fair few people would be offended by this. Just why?

Aw I gave one for secret santa a few years ago. It had a scarf and googly eyes.

I keep getting an ad for etsy for very frilly underwear, for special ladies i.e. those with a penis. I keep trying to block it and I just get the full selection.

It’s fairly clear what it is if you read the seller’s name…… 🤣

I nearly spat out my wine!
I wonder what you have been searching for to get such an advert? 😆

Redshoeblueshoe · 22/03/2025 22:25

I haven't been searching. I think I clicked a link on FWR

dontforgetme · 22/03/2025 22:31

It’s a cock in a cardigan surely?

Lassango · 22/03/2025 23:01

Fair play OP. You are bang on the money with that comment.

frillygillymilly · 22/03/2025 23:12

I keep getting the 3rd picture with the hair and pink bit. What on earth is it? Don't want to click on it

frillygillymilly · 22/03/2025 23:12

I don't think you are the type of demographic that the other poster was referring to though.

I've read this before on here but I don't think that can be right

Notashamed13 · 22/03/2025 23:13

Brilliant... I've tried so desperately hard to envisage something else this image could be
But nope.....definitely a cock covered with streaky bacon

frillygillymilly · 22/03/2025 23:13

I use etsy but buy jewellery & stationery

frillygillymilly · 22/03/2025 23:14

Isn’t that the Temu bug plush wrapped in a blanket?

I kept seeing that weird thing too for a while. What is it?

LauderSyme · 22/03/2025 23:20

I must be getting old. That thing is grim. Incredible that people thought about it, designed it, manufactured it and put it up for sale.

BadLad · 22/03/2025 23:26

Thought this thread would be about David Cameron.

MarxistMags · 22/03/2025 23:41

I just get adverts for funerals......

CapybaraInMyGardenOhIWish · 23/03/2025 01:52

I watched a tv documentary years ago about pork scratching being made. A pig nipple was known to occasionally turn up in the batches of pork scratchings. 😵😵😵😵😵😵

CapybaraInMyGardenOhIWish · 23/03/2025 02:18

That was to @MyUmberSeal and @Lillibridge

TheSilentSister · 23/03/2025 02:19

I immediately thought it was a Tardigrade in a scarf! PMSL - bet you've been waiting for decades to say that!

CapybaraInMyGardenOhIWish · 23/03/2025 02:19

Maybe it's just an innocent fish found in Korean rivers and not a penis at all!

Here I am thinking this was going to be a cooking thread...

i thought that, eg pigs in blanket and not an actual cock

Soonenough · 23/03/2025 03:20

Anyone notice the company is called Billyballbags ??🤣🤣

ElizaDolittle4321 · 23/03/2025 04:23

Doesn't look anything remotely like a cock to me, you might want to get your eyes checked, OP, or maybe not have a dirty mind you see a cock in the most un-cocklike of things?

HelpMeGetThrough · 23/03/2025 05:06

Question is, is it smokey bacon?

BlondiePortz · 23/03/2025 05:10

HelpMeGetThrough · 23/03/2025 05:06

Question is, is it smokey bacon?

Did it smoke before or after it finished?

brettsalanger · 23/03/2025 05:34

TwoeightTwoeightTwoOhhhh · 22/03/2025 15:36

Is that… antisemitic? Is it supposed to be uncircumcised and wrapped in bacon intented as a poke at Jewish people?
I mean… maybe I’m just reading too much into it but that’s the first thing I thought of

Blimey. That’s a stretch.
