So the Aunt Jemima Virtue Signal deal was really Pepsi Co doing a CYA because the left wiped up the anti-slavery crowd.
In 2014 Family of one of the actual Aunt Jemima ladies (2nd from 1935-1955) actually sued Pepsi Co/Quaker Oats for $2BILLION for rights/Royalties to the mix as first Mrs Green and the Second actually contributed to recipe also.
Fed Judge in 2015 struck lawsuit down. Now given the environment and misguided racial tension, this is CLASSIC left moves to actually use a black slave as their mascot, who they championed the whole fucking brand around and made a FORTUNE from.. to then virtue Signal, getting ahead of the misguided racial warriors to then say their company opposes such racial ideals, and terminating brand.
Huge crock of shit. And [they] know it. Articles from 2014, this particular from 10/6/2014
