Pat Riot Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Do a search for “Communist goals for America 1963”. Then look at what’s happening in this country. The crap that’s going on now wouldn’t fly 20 or 30 years ago. It may now. Useful Idiots Abound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Kit Cool Gun Garth Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 My wife and I were just discussing this at breakfast yesterday morning while pouring syrup (yes, Mrs. Butterworth) over our pancakes. We decided to keep the bottles and when we buy Log Cabin syrup next time, we'll just fill our Mrs. Butterworth bottle and let the tradition live on!

Eyesa Horg Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Real maple syrup or none at all!! You're never going to make all these factions happy. We seem to cater to anyone single complaint now adays, not what the majority thinks anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, hadn’t you heard that there are people starting to complain about the use of the name Karen being used in a negative manner? Naming a product that would certainly be an issue.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Why not label them what they are, corn syrup with colorings and flavorings? That might hurt someone’s sensitivities when they find out it’s not maple syrup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 This shows what I have said all along - black people, and especially the NAACP, are racist as hell. Mrs Butterworth is not black. Look at her face. Look at her hair. She's white woman. But because she is chubby and wearing an apron and obviously is a cook, she must be a "colored mammy". Therefore she's bad.

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Mebbe we should start a pool for which breakfast cereal mascot will be targeted first: Cap'n Crunch or Lucky Charms. Cap'n Crunch ~ Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch. Middle-aged, bordering on "Senior Citizen" status, white guy with militaristic bearing. Obviously his rank was attained via his "white privilege." With his age he is probably a drudge on society, requiring more than his share of health resources. He is also undoubtedly conservative and all that being such entails. Bad. Very bad indeed. Lucky Charms ~ Sir Charms, aka "Lucky the Leprechaun." Spokesperson is depicted as a vertically challenged, stereotypical individual of European descent. Evidently quite wealthy, known to be in possession of an entire pot full of gold, likely obtained through using his privileged status to unfairly take advantage of those far less fortunate - even those of his own heritage. Well? What say ye? Which of these vile individuals will be first...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt Earp SASS#1628L Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Just came from the grocery store. There, I thoroughly examined a bottle of Mrs. Butterworth's syrup. Can't see any resemblance to a black person. Looks to me to be more European, maybe Dutch. If they just added some color to the clear plastic bottle they could avoid the confusion. I seem to remember the old commercial where they animated the bottle. Sounded more like my German grandma. Oh, and Aunt Jemima's portrait is nowhere to be found on the bottle. Didn't check on Uncle Ben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
