Racist Toothpaste

Take a look at Darlie brand toothpaste.


But as bad as it is, it used to be worse.

That's right, back when it was owned by a Taiwanese company, it was called Darkie. But when Colgate bought the company in 1985, they said, "Hey, maybe we should tone down the racism a little bit, but not so much as to offend our loyal customers," thus Darkie became Darlie (L's are less racist than K's since there's no hategroup called the LLL) and Al Jolson's blackface was replaced with a bad drawing.
