Jackson McLean, the manager of Gaze Seed Co. in St. John’s, said Facebook approved the online advertisement on Wednesday after he asked for a review of the ban

McLean said he was setting up ads for the onion seeds when he got an error response back from the site.“A couple of them came back with errors, and I looked into it further to see what the error was, and for the onion photo it said that it was overtly sexual,” he said.

“There was something about the round shapes being next to each other that set off some trigger,” he said. He said the other error that popped up was for Little Marvel peas, which were flagged as promoting alcohol consumption.
