Not condoms for musk ox (they're endangered and we don't want them practicing contraception, do we) but musk ox flavoured condoms. Only they're not really musk ox flavoured...

Musk ox flavoured condoms hit of Arctic Games

IQALUIT, Nunavut (CP) -- Free condoms supposedly flavoured with traditional foods such as caribou, musk ox and arctic char have become the favourite collectible from this year's Arctic Winter Games in Iqaluit.

"It really started pretty much as a joke," said Todd Armstrong, HIV adviser for Pauktuutit, an Inuit women's organization.

"Often when I'm giving talks up North kids are fascinated by the fact there are cherry- or root-beer-flavoured condoms. We started saying we could have traditional-flavoured condoms."

Although the packages claim the contents are flavoured, the condoms don't really taste like muktuk, or whale skin. It's just a way to draw attention, said Armstrong...

Well, anyone who's tried Australia's Musk Lifesavers knows they can't taste much worse than musk-ox. Yuck!
