I wonder if there might be a business opportunity here. The latest virtue signal is being sent by Dryer Ice Cream as they do away with the Eskimo Pie brand. Who knows where this will stop. My thought is that if they don’t want those labels, would they sell them?
I am guessing that if someone came out with an ice cream bar called Eskimo Pie it would outsell whatever Dryer comes up with to replace it. I don’t buy pancake syrup but I am guessing that if some entrepreneur were to come out with an Aunt Jemima label it would sell like hot cakes.
It won’t happen though because these corporate snowflakes would realize that the competition would be bad for their business. Maybe a package that looked almost the same with a similar name like “Alaskamo Pie”. Or spell Jemima with a G. You know, the kind of labeling you often see in a dollar store.
I won’t be much help because I don’t know how long it has been since I had an Eskimo Pie and I am not big on pancakes. I will accept a percentage of the profits.
