Walmart is pulling its ice cream commemorating Juneteenth after criticism and backlash on social media. The ice cream, consisting of a swirl of red velvet and cheesecake flavors, has a label that reads, “Share and celebrate African-American culture, emancipation and enduring hope.” Many on social media have called out Walmart for using Juneteenth as a marketing scheme.

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.”

Who designated red velvet and cheesecake as Juneteenth flavors? Why not watermelon and skrawberry?

How many black Walmart workers will go home with baskets full of free Juneteenth ice cream after Walmart tells them they can have it??

Liberals desperate to make Juneteenth a thing. Another opportunity to remind black people how oppressed they are.

Relegated to the Great Value brand? That's some racist shite right there.

Lol! Some people are never happy. If this product wasn’t made then they would bitch about lack of representation. National Association of Always Complaining People.

Am I the only one who doesn’t see the significance of those flavors?

That’s not a holiday
I get a paid day off for it, so I'll dance a jive or whatever you are supposed to do to celebrate it.

Easter and Christmas can be marketed outrageously. Nothing is sacred there.
But Juneteenth, now that's a real holiday. We must treat it with reverence
