Why aren't there any black Keebler elves?!


Question: yes I got this off of the Colbert Report...


Answers: yes I got this off of the Colbert Report...

its because there is a 20% discount on fried chicken down at Roscoe's chicken n' waffles down on 11th street in honor of black history month

yeh those racist nabisco people. get al sharpton and jesse jackson on the phone.

And thats a problem because???????? :-/ i see NOTHING wrong with that

They all work in the north .......... you know with Santa

well because black elfs dont exists.

Frankly, the areas from whence the stories about elves originated were pretty much inhabited by white folks. People made up tall tales using the imagery they were familiar with. The very, very few blacks were virtually ignored. Fer instance, there are no tales of black Gremlins or Leprechauns, either. What, you though racism a recent phenomenon?

I know why they are all guys.(They're a bunch of fudgepackers)

have you ever seen a black elf any where ? Its not that big of deal i don't see native amercan Indian's elf or Chinese elfs or any other race as elfs so why make a big deal out of a non black elf ,
edit * well i can say one thing to seeing a elf lol sound strange but as i was 16 and on my own i was travling with some friends and had some of there water to drink come to find out they added speed to it well going down the road i looked down and saw a guy with pointed ears wearing a green suit reading a book he even lookup at me and smiled lol does that count as seein a elf he was white by the way lol

Because elves have to work hard.

People keep using the response of "where have you seen a black elf"...my response to that is where have you seen an elf period, and please don't use my fantasy novels, Dungeons and Dragons / Lord of the Ring variations to explain it.

...there are..."they" keep them in the Kitchen doing all the "prep-work"...truth be know, that's why the cookies are so good... "mama knows how to bake" (Betty Crocker and Martha Stewart ain't got anything on Aunt Jamima ?)

That's a very good question!

Because at the time Keebler was looking to hire the elfs, the black elfs were getting their welfare check so they missed the window of opportunity.

lol maybe they are black and just fell in the cookie batter!

because all the other kebler elves are white
