Update: My friend, Conrad, educated me on the fact that the fruit snack is a replica of the Manneken Pis (“Little man Pee” in Dutch), which is a landmark small bronze sculpture in Brussels, depicting a naked little boy urinating into a fountain’s basin. It was designed by Hiëronymus Duquesnoy the Elder and put in place in 1618 or 1619.

Normally, Welch’s Fruit Snacks are a great tasting and convenient snack made with real fruit and real fruit juices that are roughly shaped like fruits. However, in this package my girlfriend’s brother, George Kunath, discovered a piece that resembles a naked man. Someone over at Promotion in Motion (the maker of the snacks) has a lot of explaining to do. I mean these are snacks that have kindergarten kids as a target demographic.
