Whoever designed this package of buttermilk may well have had something else on their mind at the time.  There’s no escaping it: the design on this carton looks a lot like a penis. And it’s a carton of buttermilk. We don’t need to say much more.  The unfortunate design hasn’t gone unnoticed and attracted puns galore when it was posted on Reddit over the weekend. “They really made a cock and balls of this branding,” quipped redditor andyburdens, who said he found the cartons on the shelves of an Irish Tesco branch.  And in case you were wondering: it’s not photoshopped, though the item is only available on Tesco’s Irish website.  It hasn’t helped that one mischievous customer appears to have added a crease to the carton on the right to make it look even more like a penis.  Obviously, there have been jokes aplenty.  Tesco's own-brand buttermilk brings whole new meaning to the term 'packaging' pic.twitter.com/nmDWTLwsnf  Really Tesco - this is your pakaging design? And on your 'buttermilk' too? Too many bad jokes http://t.co/YuyB0wHm7S pic.twitter.com/AI0DuFv1Vs  Oh Tesco. I'm not sure this creamy stuff is buttermilk.... http://t.co/XYcuBa2LPw via @MetroUK  This won’t be the last time design fails cause a titter on Twitter – and this is by no means the first time:  Imagine designing a logo for one of the biggest sporting events London has ever hosted... only to be told it looks like Lisa Simpson giving a blow job. It was also called a “broken swastika” and just plain “rubbish” when it was unveiled in 2007.  Dear Tesco, when faced with the decision of which word to abbreviate, 'Assorted' is not the one to chose. pic.twitter.com/RQiPwwfGoK  Sorry to pick on you again, Tesco, but this one’s too good not to bring up again. It’s an image which has circulated since late 2013 – so much so, BuzzFeed reckoned it should have gone into sharing retirement last year.  Apartment rental site Airbnb was subject to endless mocking earlier this year when they unveiled their new logo. Instead of fanfare people reacted like this:  Okay yes and balls? I challenge you to name a sexual area not evoked by the Airbnb logo http://t.co/ptp3YUHM7j  Here are some more as suggested in the comments:  The 'Office of Government Commerce' didn't really make a good logo choice.. pic.twitter.com/dCxMrj3Cy9  Back story on that logo can be found here.  Picked up some Euro's today. Whoever designed them coins did not like Scandinavia! #Sack pic.twitter.com/Sbkgck64NN  What’s the biggest design fail you’ve ever seen?
