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'm not a FaceBook user but I would say 157,000 "likes" in 17 hours is pretty impressive.

The ratio of "likes" to "negative" comments? "157,000 to 10,000," or "15.7 to 1." But hey, store-bought media have to be constantly pushing the GOP-talking points!
