While food can be an aphrodisiac, and the eggplant emoji is everyone’s favorite sexual innuendo, we’re pretty sure not many people would find eggplant erotic. At least not when it comes to flavored condoms. This is why Durex’s recent eggplant-flavored condom hoax was so genius.
When Durex tweeted “#BreakingNews: We’re launching an exciting new savoury#condom range – Eggplant flavour! #CondomEmoji,” most people were just confused. But some people were quick to call Durex’s bluff, figuring the condom company couldn’t possibly be ridiculous and impractical enough to think people want their junk to taste like veggies. Durex admitted to the ruse, tweeting that since everyone loves a good sexual emoji, why not have an actual condom emoji? Good point, Durex—and well played.
