Nope. This is pretty bad, Nads is close, but the worst-named product in the history of man was a dietary candy sold up until the mid-80's called...
Ayds.
I still remember the commercials. "When I got Ayds, I lost 48 pounds!"
Somewhere in the world, the marketing person who named that product is still hanging from a ship, collecting barnacles.
