Probably should have happened years ago. It isn’t a favorable representation. Old enough to remember the Hy-Vee commercials where the guy would prance towards the picnic table with a bucket of “Plantation fried chicken”!
Time to let some things go just because we aren’t offended.

People never cease to amaze me.
Change the image to a lip injected, botox pumped, pissed off looking white woman with opera tickets and Lexus keys in his hands. Call it Aunt Karen.
This will solve everything. I'm sure this was high up on black peoples demands. They coming for uncle ben next?
This was Aunt Jemima when I was growing up:
I can remember the crying when they changed from that image to the current one. I don't think the change was catastrophic to anyone then, and doubt it will be now.

Coming after Kellogg’s Rice Krispies too because Snap, Crackle and Pop are all white.
So the image is racist, has been used for years, and now all of a sudden if the company stops using it they aren't racist anymore? I have no problem getting rid of these images, but the companies and politicians who are suddenly doing this are a joke. As Lucas said, if it needs to be done it should have happened years ago. This is a simple attempt at appeasement because they are worried about their bottom line, not social issues.
But, they’re probably gay, so that may save them.
Its really too bad we don't get serious about working with poor no matter what color people are. Removing these symbols is just a feel good thing.
Where have you been lately? It seems like there were a few months where I didn’t see you post.

When I was a kid my mom would get mad at me for caressing the glass boobies on the Mrs. Butterworth’s bottle.
I don't disagree with you, but it's still necessary and long overdue.
It's easy for a company to send a mass e-mail saying they don't support racism, but how deep are they willing to dig to root it out within their organization? For example, I used to be a partner in a firm that does for CCA, which had a direct hand in legislation that resulted in mass incarceration of black people. Will they be willing to cut ties with CCA?
11 words or phrases that are under assault. Hip, hip, hooray, I didn't know the origins of that. I also don't know anyone who says that.
I can't support using Paddy wagon. I mean, it's the Irish, right? They're pretty much all drunks, it isn't even up for debate.

It’s an advertisement for child prostitution!
What else did we have besides that, National Geographic, and some scrambled Cinemax movie??When I was a kid my mom would get mad at me for caressing the glass boobies on the Mrs. Butterworth’s bottle.
Well I had OP’s mom undressing by the window, pretending not to know she was being watched.
So next we have to ban product endorsements by Oprah, Lebron, MJ, Dr. Dre, etc, etc, etc.
Ok.

Mods, please move these posts to the “Now they are cumming for Mrs. Butterworth” thread. Thank you.
America 2020: Where the corporate assholes will fight tooth-and-nail to deny a tax raise that pays for a livable minimum wage, yet cut Aunt Jemima and pat themselves on the back for accomplishing something.
Is there anything other than a random facebook post that supports the claim that she was one of America's first black millionaires? It certainly could be true, but I've not read that anywhere before (or in a brief search for anything that supports the claim).
You forgot the JC Penny catalogue's lingerie section.
I was worried the movement would waste a good opportunity to get after school programs started to help kids get fed bathed and get school work help.
