Seriously? The product is caramel coated popcorn, you’d think they might give it a more appropriate name, such as…
Caramel Jills
Edit: For people that aren’t aware, this is their rebranding of Cracker Jacks, to try to be inclusive or some shit. I think they did a terrible rebranding of this, for reasons already stated. :(
Cracker is to white as N***** is to black.
Please explain the difference, and why I shouldn’t be equally upset…
If you’re comparing the badness of two words, and you won’t even say one of them? That’s the worse word
True, I can compare many words. Which word would you like me to say?
Preferably “I’ve been doing a lot of introspection and am really sorry that my internalized issues manifested in a way that caused me to hurt others.”
‘Cracker Jacks’ heavily refers to baseball, the crack of the bat…
Then put into context how old the company is…
Their old mindset was basically ‘white people play baseball, black people play basketball’
Cracker Jacks was founded in the late 1800s, around 1896.

I thought you said you wanted me to tell you what to say? What does that do with etymology?
One term came from this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/*removed*
The other was made by white people to describe other white people btw. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cracker_(term)
