Bush vs Heinz-Kerry Cookie Taste Test

They were not expected to be revealed until November 9, 2004, but the results are in of the Family Circle sponsored Cookie Cook-Off---Laura Bush's Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookie vs Teresa Heinz-Kerry's Pumpkin Spice Cookie.

Laura Bush's Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookie received 67% of the votes, Teresa Heinz-Kerry's Pumpkin Spice Cookie received 33% of the votes. 16,999 votes in all were cast. The cookie cook-off was not without controversy; Mrs. Heinz-Kerry has denied laying claim to the Pumpkin Spice Cookie, emphasizing her point by proclaiming a dislike for pumpkin spice cookies: "It's not mine, by the way. No, it's---somebody in our office gave that recipe out. And in fact, I think somebody really made it on purpose to give a nasty recipe. I never made pumpkin cookies. I don't like pumpkin spice cookies." Susan Stamberg of NPR interviews Teresa Heinz-Kerry July 27, 2004
