Walmart has issued an apology as people are furious about "fat girl costumes" label on plus-size halloween clothing on their website.
The retailer's “rude” choice of words was first reported by Jezebel which ignited an outcry on social
media. A Jezebel reader tipped off to the wording when, while browsing plus-size costumes on Walmart.com. The labeling has since been removed from the site, and Walmart has since apologized.
Walmart
issued an official apology statement to time.com:
"This never should have been on our site," a spokesperson said. "It is unacceptable, and we apologize. We are working to remove it as soon as possible and ensure this never happens again."
