Dutch biscuit maker Van der Breggen has announced its popular chocolate-covered marshmallow biscuits will no longer be known as 'negerzoenen' (Negro or Nigger Kisses). The company, based in Tilburg in the south of the Netherlands, said on Thursday the biscuits will be sold as 'Buys Zoenen' (Buys Kisses) from mid April. The name change is in response to criticism the original name is racist.
