Notice Anything Odd About This U.S. Postal Service Ad for Holiday Stamps?
November 21, 2013
"Don't forget those three American holidays: Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and.....gingerbread house."
Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and...gingerbread house?
Twitter user @RennaW posted the above photo with the caption: "Don't forget those three American holidays: Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and.....gingerbread house."
That's the message she took from a U.S. Postal Service mailer she received for holiday stamps, calling attention to the gingerbread house stamp featured instead of a more traditional Christmas one.
The USPS does offer Christmas-themed stamps with religious themes.
Still, reactions to the gingerbread stamp in the ad were swift and strident:

The U.S. Postal Service apparently took notice and got into the Twitter fray as well:
