Land OLakes is quietly undergoing a brand makeover, removing the iconic Indian woman from its packaging after 92 years.
Land OLakes President and CEO Beth Ford said in a statement that the Minnesota butter company is repackaging its products in time for the companys 100th anniversary.
As a farmer-owned co-op, we strongly feel the need to better connect the men and women who grow our food with those who consume it, Ford said. Our farmer-to-fork structure gives us a unique ability to bridge this divide.
A spokesperson for the company told the Post Bulletin the branding shift is to focus on the farmers who make the companys butter and other products.
The package design that is slated to replace the Native American woman features Farmer Owned in large text over the background of a blue lake and pine trees.
Some butter packages show images of farmers working in the field with the words, Proud to be Farmer-Owned: As a farmer-owned co-op, we stand together to bring you the very best in dairy.
Land OLakes said the updated design is being rolled out on several products, with more to come in 2020.

I have long advocated for the executions of people responsible for videos that automatically play without warning.
Goes for high volume also.
A dozen executions or so would put an end to such mean spirited activity.
Applies here too.
No name butter is half the price of Land O Lakes.
At first read I thought they were removing the nutcase because she dropped out of the running. /s
No longer do I have any reason whatsoever to buy Land O Lakes.
The truth is, I loved that packaging.
I have found it easy to choose products for my family other than
Gillette
Nike

“”No dont do it. The fold the box trick was one of my faves as a young lad.”””””””
Yup. Knees turned into boobies. Good times.
No squaw ever churned butter. That’s because no brave ever thought of it.
I never noticed that.
I just grab the yellow box.
Actually that’s not the one. That is a rigged box. you can take the standard box fold it the right way and the knees become the cans.
Even Aunt Jemima?
“Land OLakes President and CEO Beth Ford “
That is all you need to know. Another woke, emotional female.
The other day I bought a couple pounds of their European butter on sale at Fry's, two for five bucks.
For cooking we buy whatever is the cheapest.
That'll only fly in San Francisco.
Then it would be the ankles.
Long before the white man came, Indians in the Land OLakes were farming.
I don't see what the problem with the squaw is. Some folks are really into her in fact.
