Name change amid racial equity conversation————
Eskimo Pie announced it will be changing its name and retiring its eponymous character by the end of the year. The decision came within days of Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben’s, Cream of Wheat, and Mrs. Butterworth’s announcing brand overhauls in the wake of Black Lives Matter protests and a broader racial reckoning across the United States.
“We are committed to being a part of the solution on racial equality, and recognize the term is derogatory,” Elizabell Marquez, head of marketing for parent company Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream, told the Wall Street Journal in a statement.
Such nonsense afoot. You’d think Eskimos would be thrilled to have their name used on a popular product. Who actually thinks of them otherwise?
Or maybe I can make a lot of money objecting to Irish Stew. And French Toast—horrors! No proud Frenchman would ever eat that glop.
