Dixie Cups to be Renamed Due to Racism

New "Pixie" brand paper products.

ATLANTA, GA - Georgia-Pacific announced today that its brand of paper products, Dixie, would be transforming over the next few months.

"We decided that Dixie is too much a reminder of southern slavery and racism, and that needs to change." said a spokesman for the company.

The brand will migrate to "Pixie", featuring rainbow colored paper products.

"This is an exciting time for Georgia Pacific. Our marketing studies show that this will increase consumer interest by 500%. Of course it's a cheap marketing stunt, and we will still pocket all the profits, but fortunately consumers are too blind to realize that. They'll see the rainbow products and automatically think the profits go towards a charity or something. Who knew!"
