Uncle Ben’s rice may be getting a new logo after Quaker Foods announced
it would be changing the name and image on its Aunt Jemima brand in a
bid to “make progress toward racial equality.”
Mars Inc., which owns Uncle Ben’s, told Fox News on Wednesday that it
was looking into updating the rice brand’s image.
“As a global brand, we know we have a responsibility to take a stand in
helping to put an end to racial bias and injustices,” a spokesperson
for Mars, Inc., said in an emailed statement to Fox News.
