'Would you like some stuffed baingan': Twitter goes crazy over Durex's eggplant flavoured condoms

The internet is beautiful and haunting place, surprising us every day with its audacity and brazenness. While we earlier wondered if a tree falling in an empty forest made noise, now the internet makes sure that every falling tree at least gets a million reactions. Everything that anyone does goes viral, and these has led companies of all stripes and colours to try and go viral as much as possible. The good people at condom company Durex thought they had a winning formula when they launched egg-plant flavoured condoms and pretty soon the internet did its thing. Here’s how Twitter reacted to the auberginomination (so sorry).
