Aunt Jemima is a brand of pancake mix and syrup that was first introduced in 1889. The brand has been criticized for its use of racial stereotypes, and in 2020, Quaker Oats announced that it would be changing the name and branding of the product. There has been speculation that Aunt Jemima may return in 2025, but Quaker Oats has not confirmed this.
Aunt Jemima has been a popular brand for over 100 years, and it is still one of the best-selling pancake mixes in the United States. However, the brand has also been criticized for its use of racial stereotypes. The character of Aunt Jemima is a caricature of a black woman, and her image has been used to promote products that are marketed to black consumers. This has led to accusations that Aunt Jemima is a racist brand.
