A QUESTION FOR ADULTS: The Austin Powers doll that asks something that can make a grown-up blush. The toy set on sale in stores here.
WOULD you let your 10-year-old child play with a toy that says something that can make an adult blush?
The doll, which resembles Mike Myers' character in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, is on sale here.
When you press a button, the doll, which has a voice chip, says: "Do I make you feel horny, baby, do I?"
Most parents interviewed by The New Paper seemed to be stunned that it's on sale.

The Fr-ooze pop is a hard candy sucker in the shape of a dildo. When you squeeze the base, gooey sugary goodness oozes out of the hard, rounded tip. It's currently being marketed directly to children in Singapore via television ads placed on cartoon shows.
The advertisements show young children sucking hungrily on the candy, with the message "squeeze and lick" repeated again and again.
The candy is wildly popular with kids, not so popular with their horrified parents.
