WASHINGTON — Documents from the late 1940s declassified Monday contain shocking revelations regarding famed muffin patriarch Otis Spunkemeyer. The documents outline a secret US program called Operation Banana Nut which repatriated top Nazi muffin scientists to the US and allowed them to continue their work under assumed aliases.
This confirms decades of speculation that Spunkmeyer was actually Hans Jizzmueller, known Nazi party member and head of Germany’s military muffin force, the Müfinwaffen SS, until the final days of the Third Reich. His unmasking is also the latest and most surprising revelation since Americans learned that Fanta was originally produced in Nazi Germany under the name Fanta.
“Jizzmueller was a renowned blueberry baking scientist in Prussia during the 30’s so it’s natural that he was drafted into the war effort” said historian Andrew Sharruck.
