Danish ice cream maker drops ‘Eskimo’ name
July 16, 2020
A Danish ice cream maker said on Wednesday it would remove the name “Eskimo” from one of its products in case it offended Inuit and other Arctic people.
Hansens Is said it had opposed changing the name of its Eskimo ice lolly but after careful consideration had decided to choose a more suitable name.
The firm said there was now more information and debate “around the derogatory treatment and inequality towards minorities and indigenous people”.
