Do these fun straws throw you for a loop? Kentucky mother, Andrea Bailey was beyond bothered when the box of straws she bought for her 3-year-old daughter, Ashlynn contained some that resembled penises.

She told her local news station, WSAZ:

“There are two of them that are shaped like the male private area,” said Bailey. “I called Wal-Mart and they very rude with me about it. They acted like I was lying, like I was making it all up. You know, I would never make something up like that, especially about my little girl. But, that's just how they treated me and it’s just not right.”

Though Wal-Mart pulled the product from its shelves and offered the mom a refund, she said it's not about the money, but she wants to make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Do you agree with this mama's stance or think she's overreacting?
