In order to assure its customers that they are not in league with Beelzebub, Costco has announced that it will remove all food items from their stores that contain the word 'Devil," including devils food cake, deviled eggs, and deviled ham.

OMG because one overly religious demon fearing christian thinks the dinasaurs legs look like '666' they remove it entirely of the ordering menu........? And hell even if the 666 is intentional, don't buy the damn cake if you don't like it.
I personally wouldn't mind a cake with an inverted pentagram and 666, but i suppose such things should never be made since it might bother some people who could you know just choose not to buy a product they don't like....Also its debatable how much 666 even is a 'demonic symbol' just because they saw it painted on a wall in some horror movie before the terrible creature emerges to kill people or whatever? My opinion, the woman watched The Exorcist a few too many times and it took it for being real.

Stand back! You will enjoy this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OiyrXoa_xo (Marky9's reference).
The question is "why would the graphic designer choose to do that?" Worldwide branding devices get vetted by all sorts of lawyers and advisers. They end up knowing exactly what the symbology means. Nothing in advertising at that level is accidental. But, is it harmful? That is up to each consumer.
Lol now that was funny...i guess she would advise me to immediately remove the Monster sticker on my laptop...or rather 'hebrew 666' since its just the m on the sticker, somehow though if that's really what the M stands for Id find the sticker a lot cooler otherwise its just a company symbol. But what do you expect from a metalhead who listens to bands with imagry like this:
in the actual official album cover though that creatures breasts are not covered up with the albums clearly not even trying to hide it satanic name.

It is NOT debatable to many, as it did NOT originate in "some horror movie"----it is in the Bible:
Revelation 13:18
"Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666." (NKJV)
That is the intro to one of my favorite songs ever from this album:
