The Resume

    (1893-June 2021)
    Face appears on Pancake mix and syrup bottles
    Her image was used since the late 1880's
    Portrayed by Nancy Green (1893)

Why he might be annoying:

    Howard Stern was fined $600,000 by the F.C.C. for saying he masturbated to her picture.
    Her likeness is the stereotype of the black mammy.

Why he might not be annoying:

    She makes the best pancakes.
    Her logo is one of the most recognized.
    Her features have been updated and approved by the National Council of Negro Women.
    As soon as Martha Stewart acquired General Foods and Kraft, she replaced Aunt Jemima's picture on the syrup bottle with her own (sounds like Aunt Jemima was victimized).
