Utah stops distribution of condoms with cheeky slogans

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — An HIV-awareness campaign featuring condom wrappers with cheeky slogans has  met a quick end in Utah. The governor ordered the health department to stop distributing the condoms that put a sexy spin on state pride hours after they became public on Wednesday. Republican Gary Herbert says he does not approve of using sexual innuendo as part of a taxpayer-funded campaign. The prophylactics were labeled with phrases like “The Greatest Sex on Earth,” similar to the ski slogan “The Greatest Snow on Earth.” Health officials had said they were trying to start a conversation in a fun way, but later apologized.
