N.Y. Bakery Makes “Drunken Negro Face” Cookies to Honor Obama
January 24th, 2009
Lafayette Franch Pastry, a New York bakery in Greenwich Village known for its tasty cookies and treats, is coming under fire for a tasteless and racist batch of chocolate treats called “Drunken Negro Head Cookies.” The cookies are dark brown with exaggerated facial features and cherry toppings. Ted Kefalinos, who first introduced the cookies on Martin Luther king Day last week, says he made the cookies to honor Obama. He also admits that he is not an Obama fan but thinks the cookies are a winner for him since every one in his first batch was sold. When customers asked Kefalinos why he made the cookies, he reportedly mentioned Obama and said the new President will “get his” just like Abraham Lincoln who inspires him. “I’m sorry that people were offended by the cookie,” says Kefalinos, who insists his product is not racist. No one got offended when he introduced “Dead Geese Bread” after a U.S. Airways plane crashed in the nearby Hudson River two weeks ago, he argues. Many New Yorkers plan to boycott the shop whose pastries were used in “Sex in the City” and Spike Lee’s “Jungle Fever.”
I am going to pray for him even though whoever made that cookie deserves to die.

Americans!! dont you just luv em ( or not, mostly NOT)!!!lol!
that just proves that you are ALL XENAPHOBIC RACISTS…
as it’s already been said this is pure grade A ignorance. and anybody looking at this in any other light is filled with even more ignorance. I understand it’s hard for the Haters to see a black man in POWER but deal with it. They say prejudice derives from fear and ingorances is from unknown so because theirs a black man in office we are going to deal with alot of fear and ignorance. But where we come out on top is to rise above that. As President Obama stated in his VICTORY speech “he is the PRESIDENT of all people black,white,green or purple. He wants to make this counrty better for all not just one group of people. But they believe in the jim crow laws where you keep the black man down out of fear that he is better than you.
Mr cookie man should have named this cookie GEORGE W BUSH sr or jr because it represents them both to the fullest A BIG CLUMP OF SHYT
Again the baker is black person , so most of the Hating is your people. The black people.
This is a dead reflection of the man’s heart. BITTER, he will meet his come ‘upperance, boycott his bakery .. yeah
HES IGNORANT–HE SHOULD EAT THEM OR SHOVE THEM UP HIS !@#$%. THE PEOPLE SHOULDN’T BUY FROM HIM.
The baker is NOT a black person. Did Rush tell you that? Here is a link to some pictures of him: http://www.toddsmithphotography.com/transparency/2008/12/19/tasty-photos-of-lafayette-french-pastry-bakery-in-nyc/
That’s a cookie??? Obviously the person who made it and bought it are deranged so no offense should be taken!! My son would never even eat that thing.
Let me start by saying Thank You Jesus. See i want people to realize that we are not in control GOD is. so no matter what you wish and want GOD has the last saying. So mr. cookie man while you’re waiting on PRESIDENT OBAMA TO GET HIS. YOU MIGHT BE GETTING YOURS SOONER!
I agree with Trisha. That ‘cookie’ looked like straight lazy garbage.
Alas, our President is Black….so any racial criticism is now obsolete. LoL!
LoL @ David’s ignorance.
David say’s “Again the baker is black person , so most of the Hating is your people. The black people.”
David, perhaps you should first try GOOGLING “Ted Kefalinos” and discover that this dude is QUITE Italian. In fact, is what ‘BLACK’ person do you know has an “ITALIAN” last name…(not FIRST name..but LAST name). You should read more.
loool MR.LOWE…u make me laugh..hhahahahahah tell him please…he is so ignorant…
Last night I ate a cookie, but it was an Oreo(double stuff). I got to eat the best of both worlds, black on the outside, white on the inside. I would have eaten a mint Oreo, but its green on the inside, and if I didn’t eat an equal share of white and black in the cookie, I would have been called a racist.
SIX MORE BLACKS WERE SHOT IN SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES FRIDAY NIGHT , AND THIS IS WHAT YOU CRY BABIES ARE CRYING ABOUT. GET A LIFE YOU UNFOCUSED LOSERS. IF YOU’RE GOING TO CONTINUE WITH YOUR RACIST RANTS ON A DAILY BASIS ,THEN BE BIG ENOUGH TO TAKE WHAT YOU DISH OUT. WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH
So What!
There’s a difference between the cookie and what this clown said to customers re: President Obama “getting his”. The cookie was just this idiot’s stupid, insensitive way of making a buck. The comment was made racist and probably echos what others like him are thinking (unfortunately). Face it. . .this country was founded by folks who NO problem owning other human beings and killing off those who already lived here. That mentality has not changed for many people, as displayed by the fool in NY. Too bad.
Go see Notorious and pretend this idiot was never born.
ALL I GOT TO SAY IS OBAMA IS IN THE HOUSE MAKE A BLK COOKIE OUT OF THT AND SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN.
