My name is Joshua Thomas and I work in Target’s Communications department. I’ve been working with our buying team on this situation and wanted to share an update.

First and foremost, it is never Target’s intent to offend any of our customers – or guests as we call them at Target – with the products we offer. If any product raises questions or concerns, we listen to our guests. That’s exactly what happened here. As soon as we were made aware of the concerns about this soda, we removed it from our shelves.

We sincerely apologize to anyone who may have been offended by this soda and assure you that we’re going to learn something from this situation that we can apply down the road. That doesn’t mean we’ll always get it just right, but hopefully it shows that we’re listening.

Thanks for sharing your concerns, and again, I apologize on behalf of Target. If you’d like to speak with someone at the company or have feedback you’d like us to hear, I’d encourage you to contact our Guest Relations team at guest.relations@target.com.

First of all Target, you should know better. This is 2009 not 1929. Yes as a black women I'm, very offended by this. The company that put this out could'nt come up with a better way of making sale's for there soda. I love shopping at Target but I may have to go back to K-mart. Come on Target get it together.

seriously...the cans images say that whites and blacks both enjoy watermelon, what the fuck is wrong with that?

If the can had just the little girl on both sides, then you might have a reason to scream.

I enjoy watching some African Americans eating watermelon and fried chicken, and smacking those big'ol lips, its just comical stuff, not racist. Watching Asians eating a bowl of rice is just not as entertaining. But of course watching retards eat anything regardless of race can be entertaining too.
