JIMMIES

What Does JIMMIES Mean?

JIMMIES means "Chocolate Sprinkles" and may be a derogatory term for Black people.

The word JIMMIES is widely used in the US to refer to the chocolate sprinkles used to decorate cakes and ice creams.

Possibly because the sprinkles are brown in color, or because the name may be a reference to the Jim Crow laws that enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States until the 1950s, JIMMIES is now considered a racial slur.
