-
Now comes the latest controversy: Some people -- they don't say who -- assume that the term "jimmies" for chocolate sprinkles is racist. Racist? How? They're not quite sure, something maybe about Jim Crow laws. But that's an urban legend that's been debunked for decades. The name had nothing to do with anything other than a company's desire for a trademarkable name and the first name of a worker there at the time. Are we now just looking for things about which to be offended? (Boston.com)
