We don’t mean to get y’all going on Sunday, but we had to share this ‘ish with you. It’s real out in NY:
A Greenwich Village bakery owner has sparked outrage for selling “Drunken Negro Face” cookies in honor of President Obama.
Ted Kefalinos, who runs Lafayette French Pastry on Greenwich Avenue, made a batch of the chocolate treats on Martin Luther King day, hoping to make his customers smile.
Instead, he received complaints and crank calls.
Neighboring store owners say he should have known better.
“It’s not the 1920s or 1930s, we have to get a little bit civilized,” said Nandini Shelly, who owns a tobacco store down the block.
“It’s not OK, and he’s supposed to think a little bit before he says something.”
Kefalinos, who admits he is not a fan of the new president’s policies, made about two dozen of the cookies on Monday and sold them all.
He has made other topical treats over the years, including “Dead Geese Bread” after the recent U.S. Airways crash in the Hudson River.
“I’m sorry that people were offended by the cookie,” Kefalinos told the News Friday.
“We were just trying to make a large number of people happy, and instead we made a large number of people confused and angry.”
The store received several prank calls, including from one person who told him to board up his windows this weekend.
Kefalinos was also informed that some parents who pick their children up from a nearby school, and often stop by to pick up cookies or coffee, plan a boycott.
“You should choose better words because you upset a lot of people,” said Bangally Jagana, who owns an African store next door to the bakery.
“This time I think he pushed the button too much, but I will still spend money there because we’re neighbors.”
