I believe "Aunt Jemima" is a reworking of "ain't your mama."
Hmm.. interesting. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Now can someone explain why they renamed Cracker Jacks to Cracker Jills, with a cartoon black girl as their new mascot?
Like seriously, couldn't they have the respect to call it Caramel Jills? Why they gonna call her a cracker?

And they didn't rename Cracker Jack. They added Cracker Jill. It's still the same product regardless of the packaging, just with more representation.
And? Cracker Jill? How about Caramel Jill instead?.. 🤔
Sorry, but I don't think their marketing department really thought that one through. I mean hell, it's a caramel covered snack!
