Land O Lakes removes "Racist" native girl from packaging

After 99 years I guess she had to go.

I'ma gonna miss pocahontas
Best baked cookies ever made

 

She always looked like a honkey to me. Like maybe one of those people at a Rainbow gathering that finally discovered the ways of the Old Ones.

 

They need to take the camel off the cigarettes too because that's animal cruelty and camels shouldn't be smoking.

 

Yeah I just looked at it, I think it's a cute picture tbh.

 

Just Checked It Out.......Can't See Anything Wrong With It........But Nowadays Some Peeps Will

Bend Over Backwards To Find Fault In Anything......



Cheers Glen.

 

She's white I tell ya! They're stealing our heritage!

 

Sad. Not a product I use, but I do have native American blood in me. We find the Polish Gypsy was to mingle with the
tribes in the Allegheny 1700, migration from the Virginia colonies from 1680.
Butter..

 

Well, thank God! We've finally eliminated the last vestige of evil in the world! Nothing else to do now...but bask in the glory of our perfect society. Huzzah!

 

Ridiculous.

 

Aunt Jemima is getting nervous right about now.

 

When I was a kid we'd take the box and fold it so her knees were at chest level. This way it looked liked she had her boobs out. Poor kids won't be able to do that anymore. Nobody thinks about them.

 

I'd better hurry up and try that while I have the chance.

 

Do it and report back.

 

Good. While they're at it they need to get rid of the Lucky Charms leprechaun

 

Leprechauns are just magical midgets aren't they?

 

O Noes......Just When We Thought The Subject Had Shrunk.... ....Along Comes "Midgets" Revisited.....

Reminds me of Robertsons Marmalade.
(The golliwog)

it’s offensive if you’re a racist.

 

Golliwogs I remember those.

 

i never really noticed her before. i don't usually use land o lakes, although i actually have some now because apparently butter is the new hot item for panic shoppers; everything else was stocked when i went shopping tuesday, but the butter section was completely empty except for a couple land o lakes tubs shoved into the back. i just looked at it, and the new label is already in place.

personally, i don't care one way or the other about this one. i don't see it as being particularly racist, but companies change their logo designs all the time and this new label actually seems like a more logical label for a butter. now when they start selling the tubs of butter only half full for the same price, that's when i'll be offended.

it's not offensive, but it is a little terrifying.
