LA-based luxury cookie company Last Crumb is facing criticism after a series of Easter-themed social media posts. The company posted an image to its <\/span>Instagram<\/span><\/a>\u00a0of what appears to be the inside of a black and white tomb with a full-color cookie partially covering the entrance to the tomb, similar to images of the large rock that is described as covering Jesus\u2019s tomb. The post included the caption, \u201cCookies worth resurrecting for\u2026 Happy Easter.\u201d The company sparked a mixture of positive and negative responses, with some responding with a smiley face and others announcing they would now start following the account. \u201cBorn catholic, been catholic for 53 yrs… saw this, chuckled and then FOLLOWED instantly,\u201d said one user. Others, however, were less amused, with some stating they were unfollowing and others saying the account would never have said anything about the Muslim faith. \u201cNOW DO MUHAMMAD – I DARE YOU,\u201d said one user. Another user posted, \u201cY\u2019all would never post something like this for any other religious holiday.\u201d The company responded with, \u201cWatch us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The company, however, appeared to double down on the controversy, sharing another Easter-themed meme on <\/span>TikTok<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span>The TikTok brief video shows a large cookie rolling away from a tomb, with the same caption, \u201cCookies worth resurrecting for.\u201d The post also includes a post saying, \u201cYes, they\u2019re that good. Yes, this is problematic. Happy Easter!\u201d The company\u2019s social media is filled with cheeky responses, with their website marketing their cookies as \u201cso good your grandmother will disown you.\u201d One user on social media stated the move was in line with the company\u2019s usual posts. \u201cBut what did you expect from this brand, though? Lots of their posts are disrespectful anyway. It\u2019s their branding. This isn\u2019t a shock. It\u2019s expected,\u201d said the post. \u201cWe\u2019re consistent, if nothing else,\u201d Last Crumb responded. Reporting on the posts,\u00a0<\/span>Fox News<\/span><\/em><\/a>\u00a0stated it had reached out to Last Crumb for a comment but had received none.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
