People feel 'physically sick' when they realise what lion on the Lyle's Golden Syrup label is doing
If you look inside supermarkets like ASDA, Tesco, Sainsbury's and Morrisons, you're bound to find tins of Lyle's Golden Syrup. It's one of the most traditional items on shelves, and its design has largely remained the same for years.
It may be the unassuming mascot of a sweet treat, but the lion is actually dead. And what's worse - he's being swarmed with insects. Gross. It turns out the dead lion with a flurry of bees buzzing around it is inspired by the Biblical tale of Samson. According to the Mirror, creator Abram Lyle decided to use the Bible's Lion and the Bees story for his packaging.
So, Samson took the honey and gave it to his parents, then when he was asked where he got it from, he said: "Out of the eater, something to eat; out of the strong, something sweet." The revelation was brought to light a while back on Reddit too, where users were mind blown to discover the tale behind the syrup.
