A gingerbread toy is driving the internet crazy

If you spent any days away from social media this week (and kudos to you if you found the strength to do so), you may not know that the internet has found its new main character: a gingerbread stuffed toy . And no, it's not just a toy - it's a hub of debate and love.

It all started with a viral post on X, where a user shared his experience when he saw this strange toy in a store and reacted with "ew ew ew ew", only to later buy it out of "mercy". That was enough for the Internet to explode: some considered it ugly, others adorable, and all together turned this gingerbread into the newest "celebrity" of the holidays. Some commenters started pointing out the toys they thought looked weird.

It became so famous that the company Ty - the brand that makes this toy - was forced to announce its remake after everything was sold out within hours.

And now that you know this story too, we're curious: What do you think? Is this toy really cool or a little… scary?
