A&W Root Beer released a statement on Tuesday that was a veiled mockery of M&M’s decision this week to pause the use of its “spokescandies” Following political criticism

“America, let’s talk,” M&M’s said in a statement on Monday. “In the last year, we’ve made some changes to our spokescandies. We weren’t sure if anyone would even notice. And we definitely didn’t think it would break the internet. But now we get it — even a candy’s shoes can be polarizing.”

“Therefore, we have decided to take an indefinite pause from the spokescandies,” The statement went on. “In their place, we are proud to introduce a spokesperson America can agree on: the beloved Maya Rudolph. We are confident Ms. Rudolph will champion the power of fun to create a world where everyone feels they belong.”

A&W released a statement on Tuesday mirroring the language used in M&M’s statement.

“America, let’s talk,” A&W stated in its statement. “Since 1963, Rooty the Great Root Bear has been our beloved spokesbear. We knew people would notice because he’s literally a 6-foot tall bear wearing an orange sweater. But now we get it – even a mascot’s lack of pants can be polarizing.”

“Therefore, we have decided that Rooty will wear jeans going forward,” The statement went on. “Not to worry though: he will remain our official spokesbear. After all, he is un-bear-ably cute and im-paw-ssible to replace. We are confident Rooty will continue to champion good food & good times for many years to come…now in denim.”

The company then added: “Is now a good time to mention this is a joke? 😅”

Is it a good moment to tell this joke? 😅
