Gothamist reports on popular Greenwich Village bakery Lafayette French Pastry's latest sweet treat, a "Drunken Negro Face" cookie in "honor" of President Obama. Actually, bakery proprietor Ted Kefalinos calls them "Drunken [N-word] Face" cookies, at least according to a My FOX NY report. He allegedly told a customer, "Would you like some drunken negro heads to go with your coffee? They're in honor of our new president. He's following in the same path of Abraham Lincoln; he will get his."

Kefalinos has since apologized for making the cookies.
