So much hate over a cookie?

On Monday, Kraft Foods posted an image of a rainbow Oreo on its Facebook page to show support for gay pride.

This caused an uproar of hate, with hundreds of people writing messages of disgust at the thought of gay marriage or gay people in general. Kraft Foods took the image down after 13 hours, hiding all the negative and positive comments. If you venture over to Oreo’s Facebook page today, you will see comments from gays applauding the multi-coloured cookie.

Now consumers are lobbying for a real version of this six-stuffed cookie.

Could it be that trans fats cause homophobia?

Read some of the nasty comments below and then write Oreo a message of support on their Facebook page.
