Margie’s Bakery’s MAGA Hat Cookies Led To Wave Of Criticism Online, Manager Says

The bakers at Margie’s Bakery & Deli in Wichita Falls, Texas discovered how triggering – and uniting – the phrase “Make America Great Again” is after making cookies decorated to look like “MAGA” hats.

The MAGA hat cookies originated as a custom order, general manager and owner’s son-in-law Andrew Morrow told the Daily Caller on Monday. When they baked a few more than needed, they put the extra cookies out for sale, posting a picture on their Facebook page June 18. The post has since been deleted.

“The [MAGA] hat wasn’t a big deal this year,” Morrow told the Caller. “We were just making a reference back to 2016. We even in the post said ‘Make – lower case “m” capital “A” – mArgie’s Great Again’ as a joke. We put a little laughy face on there.”
