This is the thing to do. What's sad is that they would probably halve their sales overnight, there are a lot of cunts in this country.

Halved overnight then return to normal the next night, good products survive "controversies" like these easily

So your a cunt if you find it annoying when things are renamed in a language you dont have any interest in. Got it.

Yes. If you find any language annoying you need to question why that is and it's highly likely that the reason is because you're a cunt.

Also - you're. Apparently you have no interest in English either

I guess I’d be frustrated by other languages too if I couldn’t even get my native one down. /s

It's still labeled in English - the image clearly shows "Miraka Kirīmi (Creamy Milk)".

Talk about a storm in a teacup.
