Eskimo Pies are "Racist" - Changing their Name After 99 Years

[bigwave]

The maker of Eskimo Pies will change the 99-year-old brand name of the ice cream treat, the company said Friday — becoming the latest organization to overhaul the marketing of a product with a racially tinged moniker in recent weeks.

The owner of the Eskimo Pie, Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream, said in a statement they had been considering renaming the chocolate-covered ice cream bar and popsicle for some time.

“We are committed to being a part of the solution on racial equality, and recognize the term is derogatory,” the company’s head of marketing said in a statement.

“This move is part of a larger review to ensure our company and brands reflect our people values,” the company added.

Censorship and appeasement are not my values.  I don’t eat ice cream but if I did Dryers would not be on my list.  This is Ludicrous.

I’m fed up.  Biting my public tongue.

The woke LEFTIST are only spurring a backlash that will sweep DJT into office for a second term.

 

 

I love how LEFTIST are clueless as to how many middle Americans are running to DJT because of the 'totalitarian', 'authoritarian' wokeness on display for ALL to see! At least they are not hiding their true intentions any longer.
