Japan's Cream Collon is a biscuit snack shaped like small tubes and filled with cream

Cream Collons are biscuit snacks shaped like small tubes and filled with cream. The Japanese product, which is manufactured by the country's biggest confectionery company Glico, is a favourite with students and children.

Produced by Australian brand Inghams, Breast Munchies are chicken nuggets, are a popular oven-cooked meal in Down Under.

Did they mean to say tastes like grandma used to make? No one wants to eat jam which tastes like an old lady

Poo sticks for tea? These appear to be crisps of some sort although it is hard to tell from the packaging 

 

Child shredded meat, which according to the packaging, is a 'delicious classic' 

Finland's Megapussi Juussto Snacks may look Wotsits, they may smell like Wotsits and according to their fans, they even taste like Wotsits but they're definitely not known as Wotsits.

 Instead, this cheesy snack as been given a rather rude name, which will no doubt bring tears of laughter to all corn-based snack connoisseurs . 

These cans of hotly spiced pepper sauce might make you '****to'

The 'taste and simple' Dick Stick is covered with sesame seeds 

 

Somehow Marie biscuits have been translated to mean Finger Marie 

Brazilian dairy company Batavo's yogurt has one of the most unlikely names for a product of its nature. But rest assured that this treat is definitely not made from the milk of bats but instead comes from normal cows' milk. 

The company received such bad press after launching the product that they decided to change the name to something less offensive. 

 

Home sausage (left) and **** macaroni (right) sound like very rude food indeed

Fagottini pasta: Typically filled with vegetables such as steamed carrots and green beans, this Italian product also contains ricotta cheese and onions

While in some places this is commonly used as a receptacle in male restrooms, for some people urinal is a hot drink.  

Romania's hot cranberry cordial drink is said to offer natural protection (due to natural antioxidants in cranberries) and 'contribute to fluid in the body. 

We cannot however confirm if it is a diuretic.  

Ays reducing plan vitamin and mineral candy does not sound like the sort of sweet anyone would want 

It's tough to imagine what Monkey Gland sauce actually is... and whether it is 'instantly delicious'

 

Lost in translation: Another rather unfortunately named (and strange-looking) biscuit

With a name that makes you think of vomiting, Only Puke crackers are not going to be the first choice for those looking for a savoury treat.

The honey bean crackers are a product of China and are actually known as Only Pukeet.

Unfortunately due to bad product design, the last two letters in the word are invisible, saddling this treat with a name that could make you lose your appetite.

 

 

Breast Munchies are made from 100% chicken breast nuggets and are enjoyed by Australians 

 

Finland's Megapussi Juusto Snacks are similar in smell and taste to Wotsits 

 

Batmilk yogurt is a product of Brazilian company Batavo and is made from cow's milk 

The provocative Crunky Ball Nude or Crunky Nude Ball is a confection made with hazelnut paste and malt, covered in crisped rice and chocolate.

And while it may look like a downmarket version of a Ferrero Rocher, online reviews say that these nude balls are less tasty than the product that could have inspired from.

Romanian hot drink Urinal is made with cranberries and is said to offer 'natural protection'

 

These could be shrimp flavoured crackers, rather than shrimp flavoured crack... but we'll never know

Japan's Crunky Ball Nude or Crunky Nude Ballis made with hazelnut paste and malt and covered in chocolate

Surely no party is complete without some cemen dip? Fresh Cemen Dip is a spicy garlic spread found on chiller cabinets in Turkish supermarkets and is a case of the true meaning of a word getting lost in translation.

In Turkish cemen is actually the word for a dip made from tomato paste.

Unfortunately it translates as something else in English.

Sweden's Plopp chocolate accounts for 95 per cent of confectionery sales in the country.

A pale lager produced in Macedonian Thrace Brewery in Komotini, Greece, Vergina Beer is said to have a light hoppy flavour with hints of malt. 

According to beer reviewer Michael Fajardo, the  only negative about this beer is that it also has a mild metallic flavour.
