But grammatically it's bad.

"Her" reminds me of Arrested Development (good) and Hillary Clinton (no good).

Not if they mean it in the "he/she" pronoun sense.

What’s in a name? As it turns out, a lot. You might have noticed a name change on one of our products recently. One of our newest and hottest sauces—henceforth to be known as Red Scorpion Fiery Hot Sauce—originally had a different name based on a genus of scorpions. Unfortunately, that name is based on a racial slur.

While we want to be clear that we had no idea that this usage existed, we also want to be clear that it doesn’t make it okay, and we’re so sorry that it happened.

Never heard that term. I’ll be boycotting them after seeing their Spicy Plant Based Balls recipe. Nobody wants that. Nobody. :throwup:

Walmart recalls ice cream commemorating Juneteenth after receiving a heavy backlash, a report says
Walmart is removing from shelves an ice cream product that commemorated Juneteenth, a US holiday that marks the freedom of enslaved African Americans, according to reports.

Local outlet FOX 7 Austin first reported the news.

Social media was abuzz with comments from users who were angered by the product, which featured a swirl of red velvet and cheesecake flavors. Many criticized the company for appearing to capitalize on the holiday and its history.

"Juneteenth holiday marks a celebration of freedom and independence," Walmart said in a statement to FOX television stations. "However, we received feedback that a few items caused concern for some of our customers and we sincerely apologize. We are reviewing our assortment and will remove items as appropriate."
