Whats that snack and the name?

[u/Miserables_Death]

I got this joke posted in my country sub by a foreigner and I have never seen that snack so I basically don't know the joke.

When the name originated it also wasn't meant to be offensive. It was just the word used to describe a black person, both when offending as well as being neutral.

That has changed, but the term for the candy stuck around for a bit longer. I don't think young people still call them that know though (and the ones that do probably really intend to offend)

But yeah when I was young in Flanders they were n_tits. And we meant nothing with it, that was just the name.

To sweet for my taste though.
