Calpis drink, which seems to have been renamed for at least the US market and is now called Calpico. Anyway the concentrate is. It will always be (call-piss) to me though.

Up until about 1990, one could buy "Darkie" brand toothpaste in Hong Kong, complete with a Sambo-like character depicted on the tube. This was changed to "Darlie" (how clever) due to protests. There was a story about a candy bar being test-marketed in Japan called Snatch. It was, umm, snatched away from the market at the last minute. I remember a billboard in Japan put up by the American Cattleman's Association that read "Let's Meet American Meat." Classic.
