Very obvious hoax. But good on Whole Foods for strong response. Update to this previous story.
Via Daily Caller:
Whole Foods Market has issued a very strong response to a lawsuit alleging an employee decorated a cake with an anti-gay slur, saying it has proof the claim is a hoax and that it will file a counter-suit.
Pastor Jordan Brown of Austin, Texas filed a lawsuit against Whole Foods Monday, saying he ordered a cake decorated with “LOVE WINS” written in frosting. When he received the cake, it instead read “LOVE WINS FAG” on it.
Brown, who is gay, says he then took the cake home and made a video about the incident without ever opening the dessert box. He said Whole Foods ignored his accusations
Brown held a press conference Monday announcing he filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages from Whole Foods for the embarrassment and emotional anguish he allegedly suffered.
But Brown may have bitten off more than he could chew. Whole Foods released security camera footage on Tuesday afternoon that it claims totally undercuts Brown’s narrative, according to the Austin American-Statesman.
