Cupcake Shop has a "bad day," calls customer a "fat c***"

Maybe they shouldn't be charging $8 for a G.D. cupcake! Crumb, a North Carolina bakery, referred to a customer who was offended by the shop's tag line "So Good It'll Make Fat People Cry" a 'fat cunt' on their Twitter account.

Needless to say, some people found this offensive and complained, sparking backlash chatter across the interwebs.


A lame apology was issued once the shit hit the fan:

Regarding our slogan, let us begin by apologizing to you, Diana, and everyone else we have offended. This was never our intention. The tag line was meant as a joke and nothing more. We never meant to hurt anyone. The tag line is no longer in use and the tweets you found offensive have been removed.

Today, even before all of this happened, was a really bad day for both of us. The stress of opening a small business and dealing with all the details has been getting to us. None of this is fair to you, but it’s the truth and we owe you that.

Please forgive our insensitivity. We are truly sorry.

Sincerely,
Carrie and David


I'm more offended by how un-clever the slogan is. It makes no sense whatsoever and it's boring. You'd think the cupcakes would make fat people ecstatic. I think the only thing about this bakery's cupcakes that will make you cry is that apparently they cost $8.

Lame.
