Little Miss Sunbeam

Sunbeam's long-time mascot is called Little Miss Sunbeam. In 1942, illustrator Ellen Barbara Segner was commissioned by the Quality Bakers of America to create a marketing symbol of a young child. Over six months she submitted hundreds of sketches before coming across the girl who would become the first Miss Sunbeam in Southern Indiana.[3] The image of the holiday Little Miss Sunbeam first appeared on a billboard in the 1950s. Flowers Foods, the largest distributor of Sunbeam bread, has used this image of Little Miss Sunbeam on billboards and bread bags during the holiday season, in their Sunbeam markets, since 2001. US soldiers in Vietnam would state that they were members of the "Little Miss Sunbeam Club," as they had no wounds as declared in the "batter-whipped" bread's promotional claim of "no holes" ensuring freshness and firmness.

gollark: Also network bandwidth, since it's on a 34/8 home connection. That's the main limitation, really.
gollark: Wait, how much disk space does this take? My server only has 1TB.
gollark: Well, you seem to already have hosting, so I don't know why you would need osmarks.tk™ extremehosting™.
gollark: Hmm, 20% CPU, troubling.
