This is what drunken negro face cookie looks like. Kind of reminds me of what I look like every Saturday. Aren’t I a hottie?

French Pastry Shop in Greenwich Village, Lafayette is selling these drunken negro face cookies in honor of new US president Barack Obama. Now that I look closer at the pic, it does resemble Barack Obama, but I’m missing the devil’s horns and tail. Maybe fire out of the ears too.

Ted Kefalinos, the owner of Greenwich Village’s Lafayette French Pastry Shop says he renamed drunken negro face cookie into Obama head cookie on a day of inauguration. Dude knows how to market his business. Especially now that he gets so much media attention. This is how smart marketers work – either sue someone big, get yourself sued or do something ridiculously offensive. The amount of attention you get is through the roof, attention drives interest and interest drives business. Is your cookie store struggling to survive – try to outbeat drunken negro face cookies. Maybe by offering drunken Obama limp penis cookies – that will offend absolutely everyone, your business will be talked about in every corner of the land – that’s like $154 Million worth of advertising. Return on investment would be at least three fold.
