Betty Crocker was a very famous baker in the 19th century, and is still very famous today. I happened to come across some stunning news though! So, you tell me what you think! Is Betty Crocker real? Well, in an Advanced Class that I take in school we had to study decades. The decade that came into my hands was the 1950's. So, I had to pick a person for this decade. My friend picked her for me, and she happened to pick... Betty Crocker! I decided to do a thorough research of her, because I had to answer an interview. So, I did.......................
You would not believe what I found out. OK, Betty Crocker is not a real person! I could not believe it! For years I have gone by the fact that she is a real person, but she wasn't. General Mills created her. They even made up a voice on a radio talk show. On the Internet I read that they used persona. Now that is a creative way to do marketing, and for SO many years some people have lived by the fact that she was real. "Betty Crocker" even got 4,000- 5,000 letters a day. So, just think of it a famous figure could be a fictitious character (in history)!
-TELL ME WHAT U THINK ABOUT ALL OF THIS!
