What a joke. I think people should be more offended because they are taking a black lady off the syrup bottle. It's a slap to aunt jemima's face. It was an honor for her to be on it

quote:

The company also pledged $5 million to support the Black community.

"We recognize Aunt Jemima's origins are based on a racial stereotype. While work has been done over the years to update the brand in a manner intended to be appropriate and respectful, we realize those changes are not enough

Somehow they found a more mockable and stupid name than the Washington Football Team.

Now the only faces you'll see on products will be white.

Such as Quaker Oats.

And then they'll be complaining about "black people not represented".

White Libs think blacks are so fragile. I promise that blacks don’t give a frick about aunt Jemima being on a bottle of syrup.

I would much rather eat some old black lady’s pancakes than something labeled Pearl milling Co.

Pearl Milling Company sounds like one of those made up hypothetical businesses in my junior year supply chain textbook.

Get woke, go broke

Now the product is not eye catching in any way. Might as well be Wal-Mart brand.
