Cream Of Wheat
Had a strange craving for Cream Of Wheat. I forgot there is a black chef on the package. [Can't add images, Blogger is acting funny] From Wikipedia:
Cream of Wheat, invented in 1893, is a hot breakfast cereal, currently manufactured and sold by Kraft Foods. It is similar in texture to grits, but made with farina (ground wheat) instead of ground corn.
Its packaging is notable for featuring Rastus, an African-American chef. Using an African-American icon was uncommon for US commercial brands, but analogous to Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben.
