Who Was Missing in the Shopping Cart

 On my j-shopping trip today it seemed a bit odd. While looking for certain products it seemed that a few changes had been made to a few of my favorite brands. For one thing one of my favorite pancake syrups had their mascot no longer on the box. Why  was  it that this had happened

It seems that the logo was removed and renamed because it was felt that the logo was a racist stereotype.     The leading company Quaker Oats decided to remove the controversial image of Aunt Jemima from its products hosting the same name at the end of 2020. In addition, the product will have a name change coming up as well.   

               

For all those that come after the year 2020 they will no longer know about the meanings and stories behind products on the market.
