The Luft-wafer: Ice cream cone named after Adolf Hitler on sale in India sparks anger in Germany
Germans are outraged by treat named after Adolf Hitler
Lack of Holocaust education in the country means the snack isn't shocking
The ice cream cones are readily-available across India
German newspaper Bild labelled the cones a macabre publicity stunt

Even for the most dedicated of ice cream lovers this sweet treat may prove a little hard to swallow.
Unbelievably a brand of ice cream cone is readily available in India which is named after Hitler.
It’s difficult to fathom what the Nazi leader may have in common with the crunchy snack, but Hitler’s name is splashed across boxes of the tasteless delicacy which is hawked across the country.
Not so sweet treat: A street-seller stands with his boxes of Hitler cones. Hitler's name and image are splashed across the boxes of ice cream cones, which are readily-available across India
Meanwhile the cold eyes of the killer stare out at ice cream customers from the side of the packaging.
In some instances he appears in cartoon form in a Swastika-shaped top hat with a jaunty red bowtie, which is somewhat at odds with his furious expression.
Other more sombre packages depict him in full military regalia with almost photographic realism, looking very out of place next to an ice cream that's almost as big as he is.
Macabre: A box of Hitler ice cream cones. German newspaper Bild has labelled the snacks a 'macabre publicity stunt', while Twitter users brand it 'tasteless!'
Out of place: Some boxes show Hitler in cartoon while others opt for photographic realism. But his furious eyes are completely at odds with the traditional party food
But all the boxes of cones have the notorious moustache on display.
A lack of Holocaust education in India means that people on the sub-continent know little about the Nazi leader, and consequently Hitler-themed pubs and restaurants are not viewed with outrage.
But back in the country that struggles to shake off his murderous legacy 70 years after his death, it is a different story.
One spectator in Berlin, said: ‘There is taste and there is tastelessness. The people of India should be made aware of the terrible crimes committed by him.’
German newspaper Bild labelled the ice cream cones a ‘macabre publicity stunt’, while several Twitter users branded them ‘tasteless!’
Widely-available: Hitler cones in boxes tied to the back of a motorbike. The cones have sparked a furious response as images of the snack are circulated online, with some websites calling for the brand to be withdrawn.

*Hitler was a very evil man just like Churchill, Roosevelt and others.
What is funny is the sheer ignorance of these ice cream companies about the perception of Hitler in the west.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Ed Miliband, the man who competed with David Cameron to become prime minister of the UK and lost.
CAMERON (RIGHT), MILIBAND (LEFT), CAMERON THINKING "WHAT A PLONKER YOU ARE!"
Cameron has just beaten Miliband heavily in the British general elections.

Boris Johnson, mayor of London and sometimes spoken of as a possible future Prime Minister.
Far right....but not as far right as UKIP.
