The Co-op is launching a gender neutral 'Gingerbread person' and needs helps with its name

The Co-op has announced plans to release a gingerbread 'person' instead of the traditional gingerbread 'man'.

But before it can release the new product to stores, its team needs help with coming up with a name for the biscuit.

Its website states: "Our Food team is adding the final touches to a new Co-op gingerbread person, but they’ve yet to come up with a name.

"They’d like members to join in and suggest a fitting name for our new little biscuity friend.

Twitter reacts: Co-op to launch gender neutral 'gingerbread person'

"The plan is to give our new gingerbread fellow some seasonal costume refreshes - a distinctively Christmassy look for December and something rather spooky around Halloween for example. So they’ll need a name that works for any time of year.

McDonald's manager reveals how to get secret menu items  

"We also need to ensure that the name is gender neutral too. Join in to suggest a name. Our Food team will create a shortlist of the ones they think will best fit the bill and we’ll be back to ask you to vote for your favourite next month."
