What's funny is they still put the name Aunt Jemima on the box...

Call it whatever you want, if it's on sale I'll buy it. 😂

@ginx :
 

I was upset...when they got rid of The Frito Bandito. ☹️
 

 
I was always excited to get the pencil erasers. 😄

@ginx : They basically did. It does look like some kind of Aldi's copy cat version now.

So since they made their own generic, is it cheaper? Emoticon

Maybe they'll phase that out after awhile, until people are aware that it's the same brand. I know, I know the box looks the same, it should be obvious but you've got people putting glue in their hair.
 
The only reason I buy it (I'm usually not a name brand buyer) is I don't like the "just add water" mixes.

So dumb, leave it as Aunt Jemima. If you had a issue with it before you probably still do. Who really wants to say bring me that Pearl Milling Company Syrup.

Pearl Milling Company, sounds like I am buying something to make paper.

Pearl Milling is the original company that created the Aunt Jemima brand.

I always had warm feelings about the name and the picture. It never occurred to me that it was racist. Silly me.
