Workers at the Stella D’Oro cookie factory in the Bronx have been on strike since August, when management proposed a new contract that takes away a week of vacation, twelve sick days, and asks workers to pay 20% of health insurance costs.

I love those Stella D’Oro cookies, lord knows I do, but I won’t be buying another damn Breakfast Treat or Anisette Toast until the strike is over. Scab picket-line-crossers are making the cookies now, and I find the concept of scab cookies revolting.
