  1. No.


  2. People will look everywhere for racism, negrito means black. IT IS A COLOR, NOT A RACE!

  3. No, I see it and think it must be black candy, but in no way do I think it is racist.

  4. Yes it is....for those who wouldn't know the history to that name it wouldn't be. But it doesn't bother me since I never heard of that type of candy and likely wouldn't buy it, am a snickers kind of girl.

  5. Exactly how would that be racism? You do know that racism or a racist person is when something is done or is believed that one color is superior than all others because of the color?

    And now again knowing that how would that be racism?  

  6. Given that technically speaking there are no blacks in mexico, it would hardly be reasonable to assume racist overtones. ***** means black in spanish, negrito means little black....whatever. (in this case candy).

    In english, (as in english english, not american english). a bimbo is a young,s**y, usually blonde woman who isnt that smart.

    In spain, bimbo is a brand of truly awful sliced bread.

    Thankfully the spanish and english are not yet asking such ridiculous questions.

  7. it is more stupid stereotyping that racist..especially comming from others that are victims of such stereotyping..it is sad we keep doing this to each other..

    here is the link for those who say it is about the word for color

    judge for yourselves

  8. Yes the candy is racist, its the leader of the KKK, it hates Black people.

  9. Oh how silly.  The word N E G R O in Spanish means the color black, not the people.

  10. h**l yes its racist.. Just as the mexican jumping beans in America are racist.

  11. omg black beans!!!! get rid of them or ignorant people like you will continue to think they're racist
