Rainbow Oreos - It seems the battle for Gay Rights has taken a step forward with a major product endorsing the cause and although causing controversy showing that being Gay is now becoming ever more ok in the mainstream.

Rainbow Oreos

Oreo is an all-American cookie, something that symbolises the America of the last 60 years and something that everyone has fond memories of growing up. The NaBisCo favorite has to be careful because it is a cookie, not a political statement however it seems that being gay is now ok enough for the corporation to support the Pride movement. I think this is awesome!
So what happened?
Kraft has produced an image on their Facebook page showing a rainbow colored layered Oreo in support of Gay Price. The image can be seen below.

Kraft have also said this is just the beginning of a line of support images from their brands coming this month.
Of course the anti-gay lot are calling for an Oreo boycott now but many people are hailing Kraft for the move including me.
Many are calling for the cookie to be made, sadly the image above is just photoshoped so they don't even have a prototype yet!
You can go and like the image here.
More details can be found in the story from Time.
