You're quite right, I didn't know that. My only images of Aunt
Jemima are positive. My grandmother had an Aunt Jemima note-holder
that I loved, and on the shelf above her stove there was always a box
of pancake mix showing a vigorous jolly black lady. Being very young
and Polish, I used to wonder who she was and how she got the job of
having her picture on the box.
Quisling, eh? Believe I'll ask Ruby what she thinks of Ms. Oil
Tanker.
