Baker's 'Racist Cookies' Prompt Furious Reactions

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

I thought twice about posting this - but the video report of it is pretty hilarious. The baker (see below) is a character right out of a Seinfeld episode and the whole thing plays out like that show - complete with angry protesters and the guy going in for "sensitivity training".

Check out the video - its pure comedy

Here is the cause of the controversy, and probably wouldn't be an issue if the baker had not decided to label them "drunken negro head cookies":

I rarely think this, but, only in America - that is absolutely messed up

I cracked up at the bit where the guy had to go for "sensitivity training" which "didn't go well" and that he apparently is in need of "much more sensitivity training".

Seriously, that just can't be real...it can't be. Sensitivity training my #######. I have to say though, it does explain some of this 'everything is too pc' stuff. Talk about not dealing sensibly with a situation. Priceless, in a totally ###### up kind of way.

It just seems too OTT to be real, but I'm sure they can't be making it up.

I know, but really, do people do stuff like that? What were they thinking? Was anyone thinking? Did the media create this monster? Really, so many questions, so little time...

No, I don't think he did.

I forgot he got a visit from the Secret Service for making that "he'll go the way of Lincoln" crack.

Seriously - its like a real life Seinfeld episode.

The media is the devil's advocate in this case

Horrible name for the cookies but they look yummy. Can't he just re-name them?

And risk yet more sessions of 'sensitivity training'? I wouldn't risk it if I were him
