How about Mr. Clean? Something about that earring makes a statement.
And the Quaker Oats guy. Is he foisting Quakerism on us?

Replace Aunt Jemimia with Auntie White, problem solved.

I recall the old Aunt Jemimia types as being the best cooks around.

Wow, that kid...he’s gotta be ripped on drugs. Must be tokin and smoking crack. He’s starving and his head is about to explode.

I once pointed out to someone that Tigers are not found in Africa so the story must be Asian.
I honestly thought they were going to have a meltdown.
Ha ha! Much like the Tigers in the story!

The logic of it is more like “a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma”.

Aunt Jemima will be gone by next week. Mark my words.
Quaker oats is just interested in selling syrup. They don’t want controversy.

Change it to Aunt Caitlyn, then it would offend everyone. That way no one is left out.

I think they’ll need to hear from far more people than one aggrieved, sniveling wench in New York to do away with such a recognizable trademark that has resulted in hundreds of millions in sales over the years. But maybe not.

Advertising is all about transference. If you associate good feelings about a particular person, for example Tiger Woods, you will think of him when you think of that product.
For example, Tiger Woods is a winner and unbeatable and he wears a tag Heuer watch. If I wear one I will be like him.
Now people are afraid that if they wear a tag, their wife will chase them down the driveway beating them with a golf club.
That’s the end of my Don Draper advertising lesson. :-) Now I will sit in my office and vape an electronic cigarette like Don Draper.

You would not want to put him on your pancakes though. Very bitter. :)
