My title is the old Quaker Oats slogan. From slashfood.com, some Wednesday trivia for you:

The Quaker Oats Quaker…was not modeled after a particular member of the Religious Society of Friends but was an advertising synthesis–trademarked in 1877 as “a figure of a man in Quaker garb.” The Quaker…became the first registered trademark for cereal. Why a Quaker? Original owners Henry Seymour and William Henson said Quakers stood for purity, honesty and good value.
