She told the outlet it wasn’t long until other moms in the group spotted something strange about the design. “My friends pointed out Santa’s boots—which I then couldn’t unsee,” Miller said.

Another mom, Jola Burnett, who also happens to work in market research, told the Post that she was shocked the fail went seemingly unsee all throughout the creation process. “I mean, how on Earth were those cookies able get so far down the [production] line?” Burnett said.

Despite the comments brought up by some customers, Target told the New York Post in a statement that they have not received any customer complaints about the confections:
