oslo (reuters) - norway's largest erotic chain store was forced to change the labeling on products such as penis pasta, candy cuffs and chocolate body painting, to comply with norwegian food regulations.


the norwegian food safety authority, whose goal it is to make sure consumers have healthy and safe food, conducted a surprise inspection at one of the chain's stores and found that several products violated food labeling regulations, top-selling tabloid vg reported on tuesday.

"we were a bit surprised to have the food safety authority on inspection. food is not really our core product," kjersti antonsen, a sexual adviser in the store, told vg.

products containing food must be marked with a norwegian label, listing all ingredients.

"we have panties, bras, handcuffs and suspender belts made out of candy," antonsen said, adding that the store will comply with the regulations and label all its food products.

the food safety authority also said the store also breached rules of importing erotic candy, which should be reported to authorities at least 24 hours before arrival.


i think i would like to be a sexual adviser - its just the boost my resume is looking for...but i may have to do something about the suspender belts made out of candy...

Now that is the type of bureacratic BS that I exepect here, not from the happy people of Norway.

Sexual Advisor sounds like a great job, but you have to watch out. My sister-in-law is an occupational therapist, and one of her (elderly) patients had back surgery. She wanted to know when she could have sex, what was safe, and if it was possible to have doctor supervision. You don't want to be that kind of advisor.
