we knew my great grandmother on my dad's side as Ma Pearl. they can use her image if they like. she wasn't afraid to drink Jack Daniels and dip snuff. not sure about her pancakes

What's funny is they still put the name Aunt Jemima on the box...

@ginx :

I was upset...when they got rid of The Frito Bandito. â˜¹ï¸

I was always excited to get the pencil erasers. ðŸ˜„

@ginx : They basically did. It does look like some kind of Aldi's copy cat version now.

So since they made their own generic, is it cheaper?

Maybe they'll phase that out after awhile, until people are aware that it's the same brand. I know, I know the box looks the same, it should be obvious but you've got people putting glue in their hair.

The only reason I buy it (I'm usually not a name brand buyer) is I don't like the "just add water" mixes.

So dumb, leave it as Aunt Jemima. If you had a issue with it before you probably still do. Who really wants to say bring me that Pearl Milling Company Syrup.
