Aunt Jemima & Uncle Ben
 
This is a sad thing, they might have considered asking what average black folks think before dropping the famous and well trusted brand names .

Crackerjack
 
I used to love this back before Borden products bought it up and cheapened it .

Only a dime in the 1960's .

Odd perhaps but I never felt things like aunt Jemima syrup or uncle Ben's rice where in any was racist. Actually dropping them as brand trademarks to me would be.

I gave up on the bulk of people many years ago that could not concentrate on rowing their own boats through life. With their self perceived luxury of having bias against others just doing the same.

I still have no ideal of how you get people to understand people are just people. Good, bad or otherwise. It really is a form of mental sickness otherwise.

What if I told you what you see on TV hasn't been mainstream for a long time. Only boomers still watch TV news and they're checking out early.

I don't watch any regular tv shows.

can you tell us about the irregular ones? :D

I have almost no ideal of why we still pay cable charges for television. There is so little that interests us. Something occasionally of interest on the history channel is about it for me.

T.V.
 
Same here ~ I've not turned the T.V. set in my bedroom on in close to ten years .

SWMBO loves to have the T.V. playing in the back ground, I hate it .
