When I was a kid in NH there was a convenience store by my house that sold small wrapped pieces of black licorice which literally had a slur as part of it's branding. This was only like 25 years ago.
My mom told me and my sister we weren't allowed to go there anymore, but didn't tell us why until years later.
ah yes, this was known in Danish as "n-word bun" instead of the current name of "cream-bun" (flødebolle). It's always very cool to hear boomers intentionally using the old name.
Also we had these bad boys (cw: racism). And of course chuds were screaming about political correctness when they changed it in 2014.
HOW CAN I ENJOY MY SALTY LIQUORICE IF IT'S NOT INCREDIBLY RACIST :frothingfash:
After opening the link (didnt read the article, just wanted the name), I'll say I agree with your opinion - but I was expecting something MUCH worse.
I mean sure, I've seen worse.

Keeping with the Dutch theme, up until waaay too recently we had a candy (of sorts) called "n-word kiss". In Belgium they called it "a female n-word's tits". 10 or so years ago they were renamed "chocolate kisses".
