No, from the horses calling cards (similar taste IIRC)

Naked man
Of trivial interest is the image of the camel on the packet itself. According to legend, the artist who drew the image of the camel was Belgian and he did not like the Camel marketing manager[citation needed], so he placed a "Manneken Pis" in his image. When closely examined, the shading in the upper part of the leg defines the shape of a boy urinating (famous in Belgium). There is also an image of a lion in the camel's midsection; some even say there is an eagles' head in its neck. It is considered highly unlikely that these images were placed there on purpose, and that these phenomena are most likely a product of the imagination.[2]







And then?????? Mwa ha ha ha!
