Embarrassed Katie Holmes-Cruise couldn't bring herself to say what the sweets were. Picture: Warner Bros Source: Supplied Suri snapped?holding box of 'penis gummies' Mum thought they were fish-shaped jellies Katie didn't want to have THAT conversation IT'S an awkward moment for any parent when their four-year-old child is in the possession of penis-shaped lollies.
But when the?mum is Katie Holmes and it was her daughter Suri captured on camera carrying?a box of "penis gummies" which?Suri picked up at a New York restaurant specialising in desserts, it doesn't get more embarrassing.
So why not laugh it off on the The Ellen DeGeneres Show?
The 32-year-old Batman Begins and Thank You For Smoking star explained she thought they were "Swedish Fish" (fish-shaped jellies) and that she initially hadn't realised what Suri had picked up in the restaurant as she waited for a table with her daughter, The Daily Mail said.
"Recently, I took her to get ice cream in New York at this place called Serendipity that we go to all the time. It’s for kids," Holmes said.
"We go in and we are waiting for a table and she grabs some gummies that are boy part gummies. I was horrified."
Katie had trouble saying "penis" on television.
So The Kennedys star spelled it out to show host Ellen, saying: "P-e-n-i-s gummies. I said, oh wow those aren't Swedish Fish."
Ellen, 53, joked: "Even I know that, I know the difference there!"
Katie continued: "They are called p-e-n-i-s gummies and they look like it. She was holding the box and I was like okay, wow we don’t need that right now.
"Because I thought if I said 'put that back!' and then she's going to say, 'what is this?' And I really didn’t want to have that conversation."
