▶️ Hey Heinz! Mayochup Means 'S**tface' In CreeThe name of Heinz's new condiment is getting lost in translation. In Canada, over 350,000 people are Cree or have Cree ancestry. So I guess that is a bad mistake from Heinz. Heinz is already on bad terms with many Canadians regarding cutting employment jobs in Canada. How do Cree people feel about Mayonnaise? It must mean shit-something... and besides, what’s so bad about “shitface” anyway? Are Cree folk buying this expecting to get a buzz? Disgusting
