Supermarket giant Aldi is set to change the name of its 'rape yellow' paint tins following an angry outburst from a sex assault victim.

The woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, branded the product name 'offensive' after she spotted the tins while she was shopping with her son.

The furious customer said she started 'choking' when she came across the product at the Radford Road store in Coventry, Warwickshire.

Although the online tubs are listed as 'rapeseed yellow' - in reference to the brightly-coloured plant that begins to flower during spring - the in-store tins are plastered with the label 'rape yellow'.



'I contacted Aldi afterwards and they just assumed I was being sensitive because I was a rape victim.'

Now Aldi have agreed to scrap the name - but only after explaining it was in reference to the bright-yellow seed.

A statement said: 'This paint is a colour widely referred to in the industry as 'RAL 1021 Rape Yellow', which refers to rapeseed.


They seriously didn't think that was a bad idea ?? :helpme:helpme

Imagine a rape "victim" being a complainer...hard to believe.

Everyone knows you use a flat not glossy paint for your house.

Couldn't just walk by it and let it be...stop and change the world at someone else's expense.
