I think if you want something to be private, don't post it in social media. If you really want to post but don't want comments, then lock the post so no one can comment. But I think if you post something on social media and leave it open for comments, you need to accept that some people are going to post things you don't like. She may have seen her "cookies" comment as being a helpful suggestion, whereas you took it as rude. Different people have different thresholds for what is ok and what isn't. I have one friend that often posts stuff on politically charged issues, and no matter what anyone says- whether they agree or disagree, whatever, she always "likes" their post and I have never seen her ever get into an argument with anyone. She genuinely appreciates all points of view. But she's a rare one. Most people really just want to be validated, and don't want anyone to post anything they disagree with or that comes across as judgmental, regardless of the motivation of the person that posted it.
