St. Christopher

St. Christopher is believed to be one of those multi-talented saints. He is also known as the protector saint of travelers and fruit dealers. Followers really worship him and his talisman is a popular item amongst tourists and believers.

Aunt Jemima

Astonighshly, Aunt Jemima never existed. Her story is much like Betty Crocker. The character of Aunt Jemima was created by R.T Davis back in the late 1800s. It was used to advertise a brand of pancake mix, syrup, and other breakfast foods but then was later passed on to Quaker Oats. The character received much backlash as it depicted the exportation of Africans. And more recently, the character is portrayed by many different actresses to perform the role of advertising campaigns.
