McDonald's holiday cups are getting some less-than-positive attention.
On Saturday, Twitter user Sam Sykes pointed out that with some slight modifications, McDonald's holiday cups appear to show hands exposing a person's backside.

As of Monday, the tweet had been retweeted more than 13,000 times, and liked more than 22,000 times.
"To be clear, our festive McCafé cups are of mittens not hands," McDonald's spokesperson Becca Hary told Business Insider. "The altered image circulating on social media is the result of someone getting a little cheeky and adding some hand-drawing to a cup."
