Boy, I know America has an obesity issue, but you guys really get riled up by syrup. Do yourself a favor, at least get some high quality maple syrup.
I get the satire, but this is illustrates an underlying problem rearing its head in America. We have pampered, bored people, living such protected lives, that they have nothing better to do than to obsess over removing faces on a food products. It's like a hobby with them to express dramatic fits of outrage over the most minuscule of things. What kind of tender woke snowflake can envision some kind of racist aggression against blacks in America, simply by seeing black woman's face on a food product box?

I really could care less if I never see a black person's face on a food product package, but it does bother me that we have woke-tards who make it their life's work to remove them in the first place.

It was surprised that it bothered me when the Minnesota company Land O Lakes removed the image of a native American woman from their butter packages. What's so offensive about native American women? Minnesota has a rich culture of Native American heritage. It's like the woke will not be satisfied until any image, mention, reference or reminders of Native Americans are removed from the public square completely.

If it's so miniscule, then what is the issue?

I don't know. But every time we get into discussions on race, we always seem to have some try to devolve into this idiotic drivel. As if, after a hundred years of Republicans fighting against the dems to end racism, in 1965 the racists all got up and left the Democratic Party and magically became Republicans.

That these woke-tards are nuts, race obsessed, and pushing their idiocy into corporations, forcing onto our children in our schools, pop culture, and even trying to affect our laws.

the same types of people obsessing over these minuscule things don't stop with cereal boxes, they want to make it illegal to freaking misgender someone. I don't know what's next, but I want to stop this insanity before it goes too far.

The box had the name of Pearl Milling Company on it and a very small picture on the front that said. Same great taste as Aunt Jemima.



This wokester stuff is ridiculous. What is so racist about having a picture of a black woman on a box of Pancakes? I see people that are Italian on boxes of products . And I am sure there are many pictures of the original product with the founders. It is removing all race on products because the globalists want to take all of our identities away and be a global citizen with no country, no history, no flag , nothing from the past.



This is getting crazy . The black family that are the ancestors of Aunt Jemima are angry. It is taking their legacy and erasing it completely.


I am so sick of everything being called racist. My grandparents were not even in the country when slavery existed and this racist stuff depicts every white person as being from a family that owned slaves. More blacks owned slave and they never talk about that because it does not fit the narrative.



The dems use race to divide us to gain power over blacks.. they really don't care. It is all about power.

^ Tell me you are white and of a certain age without telling me you are white and of a certain age.

Aunt Jemima was retired in February. Uncle Ben was retired a year ago.

I am white and of a certain age, too. I can appreciate how the images may offend.

Don’t like change? Make your own from scratch and post a pic.

Fear not! You can post minstrels in black face, Mammie's and any other stuff you enjoy all over your house.

I hardly think it is a bad thing to remove slave era labeling from products. I certainly support private companies to do what they want, and if buyers feel strongly they can speak with their wallets, and not buy their stuff.

I find none of this worthy of outrage, but it IS fun to watch.

I would hazard a guess, that it's the same group that ALSO complains that advertisements now are so multi racial and feature... gasp, homosexuals and/or transgender.

People eat what, pancakes? Or premade processed powdered mixes like pancake mix?

As if normal people see a black face on a pancake mix box or Cream of Wheat, and think "OMG SLAVERY."

What's next, canceling Star Wars now, because some pampered, bored woke-tards have warped and twisted themselves into a knot and decided it's racist

Ah, I see! So - it is a hobby with them to express dramatic fits of outrage over box art, but it completely isn't when we - ehm - express dramatic fits of outrage over box art. No, that can't be it.

It's a burden to be educated at times, admittedly.
