Flavoured, glow-in-the-dark, ringed, ribbed, dotted... you get the drift. Innovation is always the key and, on Monday, showing some out-of-the-box thinking, global condom manufacturer Durex launched an unusually flavoured condom in its "new savoury condom range". Yes, you can now get an eggplant -- or as we Indians call it, brinjal or baingan -- flavoured condom.
The condom manufacturer posted about it on Twitter.

Today it's baingan. Soon they'll sexualise eggs too. Then, orgy will be replaced by bhurji.

The funny thing is eggplant itself tastes like rubber. So Durex has launched condom flavoured condoms. Good job.

Well, one Twitter user has run a poll too.
While on baingan, what kind of baingan do you prefer:
