America’s favorite cookie is stirring up more than milk today after Kraft Foods posted a gay pride Oreo on the cookie’s Facebook page.


Oreo posted the photoshopped picture of an Oreo cookie stuffed with rainbow-colored layers of frosting Monday evening with the caption “Proudly support love!”


Over the past 17 hours more than 157,000 people have “liked” the image, 40,000 people have shared it and 20,000 have commented on it.


But while many of the comments were supportive, some Facebook users pledged to boycott the cookie because of the post.


“I’ll never buy Oreo again,” one commenter wrote.


“Disgusted with oreos,” wrote another. “Being gay is an abmonitation in GOd’s eyes i wont be buying them anymore.”

    How many folks do you think will boycott Oreos because of this? The very same people that bitch and moan about the boycotts against Chick-fil-A.
  • BoomLover 2012/06/27 04:59:55

    I won't eat them because of the 6 layers of frosting, the "Gay Pride" issue is something else again..."Straight Pride", and a person wearing such a label, has just as much validity.......

    I didn't say I'd eat them. I work for a company with hundreds of employees and could bring them to work. They'd get devoured in 3 seconds.

    Somehow I got the impression there were way more "homophobes" than "homos"...? Like an order of magnitude to the 17th power...Just guessing, same as you, I'm sure you recognize that, right?

    They'll be running back to Cracker Barrel faster than you can say 'yee-haw'.

    Hummm...as per your last post, are there no homos at Cracker Barrel? Just wondering....wondering why you come up with the statements you do....

    I have no idea if there are. There do tend to be a lot of white Republicans at a Cracker Barrel. The "They'll" refers to them. Some people, including a few on this very poll have responded that they will no longer eat Oreos, and will boycott. A boycott of Kraft Foods means a boycott of the Cracker Barrel.

    Caught up now?

    It sucks to be those who won't ever buy the cookie again. Now they can't have an Oreo treat.They're only hurting depriving themselves.

    I laugh at the over dramatic people who are suddenly giving up Oreos (like they did with Ben & Jerries). Grow up, it's just food. Just because you buy their product does not mean you're part of the gay supporters group. People are not getting any mature, I can say that. -_-
