The term "Jimmies" is believed to have originated in the 1930s-1940s in the United States, with the exact origin unclear. Some theories suggest it may have been inspired by the Jim Crow segregation laws, while others propose it was simply a whimsical name chosen by a sprinkle manufacturer. The term "Jimmies" is predominantly used in the New England region of the U.S., while other areas may refer to them simply as sprinkles.
