Walmart is in the eye of the storm after an American woman publicly denounced that the well -known supermarket chain offers "cow" size clothes for women.This fact unleashed numerous criticism and outrage on social networks.
The controversy began when G’nadine Grant, from Florida, visited the Walmart digital platform to buy items in line according to the Christmas season.Everything marched well until the woman wrote in the search bar of the "women's female ugly carvishment women's portal".
Seconds later, Grant felt outraged when he realized that in the virtual store the sizes were listed in 3x, 4x, 2xxl and "cow", whose meaning in Spanish is "cow"."I am very angry.Obviously, these are for older people, and you mean the older people like ‘cows’, ”he said

Faced with this situation, G’nadine Grant lifted the phone and called the company's corporate office, but did not receive any response."This is not really a customer service problem.This is a problem of the corporate office that Walmart would allow something like this to be published on its website.So nothing was done, ”he said.
However, the NBC communicated with Walmart to obtain a statement and a spokesman declared that "this is certainly not right and we are working to determine what is happening now".
For his part, Carrie McKnight, from the Walmart Electronic Commerce Department, indicated that “in this case, the client had looked for an ugly Christmas cow sweater of a large size cow.And that's how that word came.It is no way a descriptor of a size, ”said Walmart's defense worker.
