Santa’s Yumnut. Yuletide Chestnuts. Christmas Cookies (if you know what I mean). A bakery posted a bizarre tweet asking “who wants a bite of Santa’s Yumnut?” and the good people of Twitter could not resist the chance to roast them.
Who wants a bite of Santa’s Yumnut™? Our yum yum-doughnut hybrids have been given a Christmassy makeover, with delicious flaky pastry layers and a sweet Santa’s belt topping. Find them in our in store bakery. pic.twitter.com/BcWwxOo26r

We’ve all posted something we regret on social media. Some get canceled for it. Others stay in business but never live it down. In 2020, when brands are posting more creative ideas than famous poets and thinkers on Twitter, the Marks & Spencer bakery decided to lower the bar for everyone by naming a new treat: “Santa’s Yumnut.” So, put another log on the fire, and let these funny jokes slide down the old chimney (by that I mean “into your brain”).
Here is how people reacted to @marksandspencer asking who wants to bite Santa’s Yumnut:

Santa Baby, bring me your yumnut. Yes. Yumnut.
