Oh no, not another penis-shaped food fiasco.
Earlier this week, the story of a Jonker Walk trader selling penis-shaped sausages made headlines as it displeased several other Jonker Walk traders as well as the local community in Malacca. Yesterday, a businesswoman lodged a police report over the unauthorised online circulation of her selfies with a penis-shaped bahulu cake aka kuih bahulu.
45-year-old Faridah Ulis, also known as Mamadot, lodged the report at the Miri central police station at 11:41am yesterday (Wednesday, 17th February) and at the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) branch in Miri. She claimed that she found the penis-shaped bahulu cake on sale at a shop before the Chinese New Year.
She took some selfies with the bahulu cake and uploaded them on her Facebook account because she wanted to share them with her friends. Little did she know, her pictures would circulate online without her authorisation and even make their rounds on other Facebook groups.
Faridah told Bernama, “My main intention in lodging the report with the police and MCMC is to find the culprits who shared my selfies without approval.”

“I had no bad intention when sharing the selfies with friends as it was just to inform my friends about the bahulu. It was unique, and I even bought some for my friends,” she added.
She said the selfies were shared and it was even wrongly stated that the bahulu was being sold in Langkawi for RM4 per packet.
“My husband is also upset over the negative comments made by netizens criticising my action for taking selfies with that bahulu,” she said.
Faridah has since deleted her pictures after finding out that it was being shared rampantly on Facebook.
Meanwhile, Bernama made a check and found that the shop which sold that bahulu had stopped taking orders for it after the negative reaction from netizens and the public.
