Can you think of anything else that should be removed from our grocers shelves due to political correctness?

The story you linked to does not say anything about removing Aunt Jemima products, or ending the brand.

Seperating chicken and turkey cuts into "white meat" and "dark meat" is another fine example of McGovernistic segregation that simply cannot stand. But the one - the ONE product that stands as the most offensive, the most bigoted, the most inflammatory of all is this one...

I went out to a nice restaurant a few months back and the waitress ( a black woman, very nice) asked me how I wanted my coffee ( I drink my java black); I hesitated before I wanted to say “black” or “dark” so I just said I’d take it with cream. /walking on eggshells in this PC world

Yet that conniving Lucky Charms leprechaun step-dances on, mocking my Irish heritage.

Where did I put that lawyer? I know he's around here somewhere.

How long will those Chunky soup ads last? I think they are running on Fox. Some black mother serving soup in the metro. Weird.

Yes but for the nigglers out there, is it cheaper?

Stop being so niggardly.

The worst commercial I ever saw was for the Maytag range where they had Michael Johnson runnin' fo' FRIED CHICKEN and the maytag repairman snatches it away and says "who's fast now, Michael." They used to run it a lot and I couldn't understand that nobody noticed the subtext.

This is also reminding me of the joke about how the NFL was going to paint the football with alternating dark green and light green stripes so the african-american running backs would be sure to hang onto it better...
