Alas, Cookie Monster falls prey to healthy eating

[tracilicious]

I really, really love watching Sesame Street. I've only seen one show this week and the entire freaking thing was about bananas. I almost expected them to say "Sesame Street was brought to you today by the letter M and the Dole banana company." I'm also sad to see cookie monster change, but on the other hand, kids eating habits are really bad, and I think that it is great that Sesame Street is being proactive to change that.

Through much of the last season Cookie Monster ate the letter of the day and not cookies. That was pretty funny. My favorite cookie monster bit was when they were doing the letter K and whoever the start guest was was naming words that started with K and Cookie named "kowabunga." The star said that it wasn't a word and Cookie replied, "Yes it is. Is esoteric." I cracked up.
