Uncle Ben is now Aunt Karen...
Uncle Toms Whitey Rice
That’s ricist
You mean "white-washed"?
Black rice matters
Really... just change the pic to a white guy and call it Chef Bens.
In fact - all characters used to market products should be white to be safe.
Wait... why is there no diversity in marketing again? Do these capitalist oppressors think theres only one race?
Waiting for Sprite to be attacked next for proclaiming its a Soda for blacks
Packaging and sports paraphernalia are being washed of minorities but at the same time every commercial and TV show is all minorities ( and queers ) all the time. I don’t get it.
Uncle Ben
Aunt Jemima
Bill Cosby
Barack Obama
O. J. Simpson
All disappearing from history.
I would buy that.
He offends white Democrats.
In 1921 a mob of angry white Democrats burned down a black community.
In 2020 angry white Democrats resumed burning down black communities ... but this time they think theyre helping.
A few years down the road the complaint will be: “How come when I go to the supermarket, all I see are images of White people like Betty Crocker and Chef Boyardee on the packaging?” “Why don’t these companies use images of people of color to promote their products?” “That’s racist!”
Democrat whitie racists of the 50s and 60s would have loved this.
White-only packaging!
Who are the racists again?
I don’t see him in there, but since you asked, Takuya Yamashiro. (In his storyline, it wasn’t his uncle who was killed, but his father, Dr. Hiroshi Yamashiro, by the Iron Cross Army.)
The KKK libs are still at it, I feel sorry for the relatives of these iconic black people.
Affirm.
Try to find Disney's 1946 movie "Song of the South" with the Uncle Remus narration. Based on the Georgia native Joel Chandler Harris' (1848-1908) Br'er Rabbit stories taken from AfroAmerican folk tales, the movie won an Oscar for its song "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" in 1948. Mr Harris was a longtime editor for the Atlanta Constitution newspaper and an advocate for regional and racial reconciliation in the 'New South'.
Now this movie and all of its iconic memes, 'tar baby', 'briar patch' etc. are verboten. Disney has never released this mixed animation & live action movie on any domestic home video.
Bens Original what?
Whos Ben?
Is he no longer somebodys uncle?
Reminds me of packaging that has The Original... and has a special banner new and improved.
