THE RED SKINS ARE CHANGING THEIR NAME!!!
No, sadly, not Washington's NFL team -- but rather the lesser-known candy ... which Nestle now says is getting a makeover due to the racist implications of the moniker.
In a statement released Tuesday ... the candy company said it'll do away with the"Red Skins" name because it's straight up"out of step with Nestle’s values." "This decision acknowledges the need to ensure that nothing we do marginalises our friends, neighbours and colleagues," Nestle officials said. In addition to"Red Skins", the company also says it's canning the"Chicos" name for its jelly candy ... citing the racial undertones there too.
Props to the org. for realizing the ignorance and vowing to swiftly right the wrong ... but it all begs the question -- what is going on in the NFL?!by helping facilitate the removal of a stadium monument and FedExField lower bowl naming -- STILL refuse to acknowledge the need to reconsider their team name.
