Whole Foods is fervently pushing back against the claim that one of its locations sold a cake with an anti-gay slur on it, calling the allegation “fraudulent” and offering up security footage that the company believes corroborates its stance on the contentious dispute.
As TheBlaze previously reported,
the cake battle began after Pastor Jordan Brown of Church of Open Doors
in Austin, Texas, alleged that he recently ordered a cake with the
words “Love Wins” on it, but that the final product ended up reading,
“Love Wins Fag.”
Brown decided to take action,
turning to the Kaplan Law Firm in Austin to bring his grievance to the
courts, with a press release from the pastor’s attorney and an
accompanying video featuring the cake in question quickly gaining
widespread attention.
But Whole Foods quickly spoke out against the claim and issued a
detailed rebuke, announcing that the company now intends to take legal
action against both Brown and his lawyer. According to Fox News, Whole Foods is seeking $100,000 in damages.
“Our bakery team member wrote ‘Love Wins’ at the top of the cake,
which was visible to Mr. Brown through the clear portion of the
packaging,” read a point-by-point statement from Whole Foods. “That’s exactly how the cake was packaged and sold at the store.”
The company said that it has a strict policy of not accepting or
designing cakes that include offensive language. Whole Foods also said
that it believes that security footage of Brown purchasing the cake
provides additional context to back the supermarket chain’s contentions.
“Mr. Brown admits that he was in sole possession and control of the
cake until he posted his video, which showed the UPC label on the bottom
and side of the box,” the statement continued. “After reviewing our
security footage of Mr. Brown, it’s clear that the UPC label was in fact
on top of the cake box, not on the side of the package. This is
evident as the cashier scans the UPC code on top of the box.”
The company published the security footage that purportedly shows the
location of the UPC label, though it is difficult to see specific
details. Watch it below:
Social Justice Warrior don't want to be be confused by the facts because facts are not necessary when implementing Social Justice Warrior policies and programs.This Social Justice Warrior narrative is designed to cover up the falsehood of the first and second narratives. This is the way liberals work.., serving up propaganda intended to benefit Social Justice Warrior, but which in its absurdity repels people grounded in reality
