    The Betty Crocker products arose from the Washburn Crosby Company, in partner with General Mills. According to the Betty Crocker website, the idea of “Betty Crocker” arose in 1920 when General Mills published a puzzle in an article; if you sent in a completed puzzle you would receive a prize. Not only were completed puzzles sent in, but a plethora of letters asking cooking questions were sent too. In response, General Mills made “Betty Crocker” to reply to the questions in a personal manner. But why the name Betty Crocker? Well, crocker was after the retired director William G. Crocker. Betty was chosen because it had a pleasant and cheerful feeling. Soon after people sent in signatures and illustrations of who they thought Betty was. And…

    Betty Boop is a remarkable animated cartoon character discovered by Max and Dave Fleischer, pioneers in the development of animated cartoons and at the head of Fleischer Studios. These bright men worked tediously to find a cartoon to compete with the iconic animation, Mickey Mouse. The brothers’ first approach was “Bimbo the Dog,” but was not as renowned and famous as Disney’s mouse. Something was missing and they made it a mission to find out. Maybe Bimbo the Dog was lonely and needed a girlfriend, named Betty Boop.…

    The cover photograph for this issue of Southeastern Geographer places you on the roadside of Highway 17 in Mount Pleasant South Carolina. In the midst of suburban neighborhoods, shopping malls, and commuter traffic, African American men and women sell baskets made from sweetgrass, bulrush, palmetto fronds, and pine needles. These baskets have become a popular symbol in Charleston’s historical tourism industry because of their connection to West African coiled basketry, rice processing on lowcountry plantations, and their association with Gullah-Geechee culture (Rosengarten et al. 2008). Despite this importance, the craft has been undermined by development patterns that restrict access to raw materials, disrupt African American communities, and displace roadside basket stands (Proceedings 1988; Halfacre et al. 2010). The craft has persisted, however, which illustrates that land use and livelihood changes can be co-produced by a host of different social relationships (McCusker and Carr 2006). In this case, negotiations between the basket making community, government officials, and residents have created a variety of formal and informal agreements that save, as…

    Betty J. Meggers article, Environmental Limitation on the Development of Culture, examines how environmental habitats directly affect and influence culture. Meggers discusses the differing environmental types and its resulting effect on the people and their cultural development. Her theoretical framework is grounded on the idea that the relationship between culture and its environment is not only based in terms of subsistence (802), but largely to a culture’s experience with diffusion (822). Diffusion can best be defined as a process in which a cultural trait, idea, or behavior is spread from one society to another. While she does believe that the relative strength or weakness of an environment to provide a suitable…
