Walmart has issued an apology for selling a Christmas sweater that featured a clear drug reference as the design.

After the sweater was mocked and criticized on social media, Walmart issued an apology to Canadian news organization The Global News.

Here’s Walmart’s official apology: 

“These sweaters, sold by a third-party seller on Walmart.ca, do not represent Walmart’s values and have no place on our website,” the statement said. “We have removed these products from our marketplace. We apologize for any unintended offence this may have caused.”
