A place I worked out stopped carrying “Plantation” brand peanuts because somebody complained.
Nevermind the fact that the word “plantation” existed long long before America ever existed and associated it with chattel slavery in the minds of Americans, or the fact that the peanuts in question literally come from a modern, active plantation still today!

The etymology of “Plantation” is very transparent too. And with the centralization of agriculture almost anything we eat comes from plantations today.
