Food was never racist to begin with. The only racist were the overly sensitive people who were "offended" in the first place. Aunt jamima was my favorite syrup. Not any more.
Only The Intersectional/Identitarian Mob would consider foods 'racist' most of them are probably vegetarian's/vegan's branding is something else again, in the UK foods are not branded around personalities the same way it seems to be in the US.
Companies modernizing their packaging to fit the current times. Great. Moving on.

All I see are people of color being removed from brands and replaced with new logos excluding them. Now people don’t have to be offended by seeing a person of color on items you buy every day all in the name of “equality”. Congratulations.
I completely agree. We need to remove black people and indian/eskimo tribe faces off food brands. Who wants to be buying rice and there's the picture of some black guy on it? Remove them all!
As a black male, i have never had any problems with those brands. Actually since removing them. It's nothing but white people on brands now. So is it really becoming less racist? Hmmmmm...
It should be (it's 2024, not 1924), and to continue the trend toward non-racist grub, they should put a picture a me, a handsome black buckaroo in cowboy garb on the box or bottle.
When I was a kid one of the lunchtime aides (not food worker, but a playground "cop") was a large black woman, and everyone referred to her as "Jemima", even to her face.

Yea, so glad they are getting rid of these racist cartoons... On food and sport teams.
It's a racist's dream. No more do they have to see black faces staring at them from their pancake box. There are only white advertising icons, now!

I don't see in what those food were racist before seriously...
If by less racist you mean removing minorities from products because of their race then no
The land of lakes one is the worst, they took away the native but left the land 😂😂
No. Its to stop White people from viewing it as such.
Nope. Virtue signaling at its worst. Or as one comedian said about Land O Lakes, "Typical. Remove the Native and keep the land."
Let's be racist be erasing the faces off all Black/Brown people from all products. White Liberals are so fucking stupid.
Those companies were afraid of having their factories/ headquarters burned down by looters (the BLMer’s).
lol just peel the label off n eat
or maybe its just a sign we should toss this junk away grab the fruit /veg
Welcome to the stupid world where too many people get butt hurt feelings.. Boo hoo! It's a stupid world full of PC liberal trans/homosexual fucks.
not all homosexuals are liberals
with how often people use the word "racist" and the way they use it the word is losing it's meaning
Leave it to corporations to erase all representation of all non-whites on food products. Hitler would be proud.
