Pokimane\u2019s launch of her Myna Snacks cookies has been a rough one with the streamer coming under fire due to the product\u2019s price and its similarities to another item found at Costco. Although Pokimane and a Myna spokesperson stated that the cookies\u2019 formula is unique and not a \u201cdrop shipped product\u201d the debate over pricing waged on, with the streamer even jokingly mocking \u201cbroke\u201d fans upset about paying $7 per bag. After Pokimane\u2019s comments went viral and backlash spread, some streamers, such as Nadia, defended the Twitch icon, suggesting she was being targeted due to sexism. This didn\u2019t sit right with xQc, who hit out at those claims. xQc blasts Nadia\u2019s defense of Pokimane\u2019s cookie controversy In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Nadia shared a video of Pokimane saying, \u201cif you\u2019re a broke boy just say so\u201d in response to the cookie conundrum. Nadia accused those upset with Pokimane of not speaking out about male streamers such as N3on and Sneako when they are involved in controversy. \u201cWhen a girl sells cookies that\u2019s when the y\u2019all wanna speak out? The immense hatred towards women on the internet is unhinged,\u201d the Call of Duty streamer remarked. \u201cThis is why there is a threshold on women, yea it\u2019s easier for us to get publicity, but to reach the top is almost impossible. The standards upheld on us are so extreme. However, the men at the top can say\/do anything without any repercussions.\u201d Yes Nadia, it is the hate towards women that gave the cookies their price tag. Coincidently, it\u2019s also the hate towards women that made everyone live paycheck to paycheck and not able to afford luxury goods. There\u2019s no valid criticism here, tell em queen \ud83d\udc78 \u2014 xQc (@xQc) November 20, 2023 As Nadia\u2019s take spread across X, it got the attention of xQc, who responded sarcastically to her opinion. \u201cYes Nadia, it is the hate towards women that gave the cookies their price tag,\u201d the French Canadian stormed back. \u201cCoincidently, it\u2019s also the hate towards women that made everyone live paycheck to paycheck and not able to afford luxury goods. There\u2019s no valid criticism here, tell em queen.\u201d So far, neither Nadia nor Pokimane has addressed xQc\u2019s comments, but the cookie seller has indicated plans to consider lowering the price of Myna Snacks following backlash to make them as affordable as possible.
