Now it’s Ban White Milk! By James Reed

     Oh, it is not just America. First Coon cheese, now Smarter White Milk. It is not going to stop now that the genie has been let out of the bottle.

“An indigenous rights activist who succeeded in having the Coon cheese brand scrapped will now campaign for Pauls to rename its 'Smarter White' milk. In July, Dr Stephen Hagan convinced Canadian dairy giant Saputo to axe an 85-year-old moniker, named after American cheese ripening pioneer Edward William Coon, because of its racist connotations. The former diplomat and academic, who now works as a social justice consultant, has now called on Pauls's French parent company Lactalis to replace the 'Smarter White' label, which has been used to sell low-fat milk since 2002.  'Aboriginal people are saying that there's an inference that it's for smart white people, not for smart black people,' Dr Hagan told Daily Mail Australia. 'There's a lot of Aboriginal people who take offence, who don't drink that milk because of the interference that it's "smarter white".'”

     Well, milk is white, so ban that next.
