Walmart Ridiculed for Selling Coked Out Santa Sweater

Ho ho ho! Want a line of snow?

Walmart Canada

With the holiday season in full session, many companies release new apparel and gifts to try to lure in customers. Walmart, being one of the largest companies, recently released a sweater displaying Santa doing lines of ‘snow’, AKA Grade A cocaine.

The character knitted into the jumper looks less like Santa and more like the abominable snowman— on meth. Obviously, this blew up all over social media and many were offended, mostly Moms and the elderly. Not everyone thought it was disgraceful though since it does cater to a certain age group’s humor.

The jumper was available in Canada until it was desperately ripped from the selves after the controversy. The actual product description states:

We all know how snow works. It’s white, powdery and the best snow comes straight from South America. That’s bad news for jolly old St. Nick, who lives far away in the North Pole. That’s why Santa really likes to savor the moment when he gets his hands on some quality, grade A, Colombian snow.

Columbia threatens to sue Walmart for linking their country with cocaine, which is understandable since that isn’t exactly a glowing reputation. Walmart was mortified and issued an apology right away claiming the product was sold by a third-party dealer off their website.

In their defense, no one can really do anything these days without offending what seems like half the population. So, good for them for pocking fun at the world for what it is.
