How the Cookie Monster crumbled
Seasame Street's, Cookie monster will no longer be seen with his trade mark cookies I heard announced on the radio a few days ago. It is said that children are in need of being taught how to eat healthy due to the rise in obsesity. Instead of cookies, our funky blue friend will now eat to quote "more healthy" with a diet consisting of fruit and vegetables. Where are the cookies I hear you cry? Well it has been decided the cookies won't completely disappear off our screens as after all where would the Cookie Monster be without his cookies, instead he will only eat them occassionally and as a treat.Oh and Elmo will now have a keen interest in exercise.
Taking this healhty eating idea further, they have also decided that some 'weight' will be taken off some of the characters who appear more 'filled out' than others so to speak. But saying that I think Big Bird wouldn't be Big Bird if he wasn't so... well, big lol. It gives him that fluffy, cuddly like quality. Also Mr Snuffellufigus, well if he had a erm 'trim round the edges' he just wouldn't be the loveable elephant he is or was. That is saying if Seamsame Street still has these characters, it's been a while since I've watched the programme unfourtunately. :(
Being a lover of Seasame Street, (well it was the programme of my childhood and I'm sure if it was on my screen again I would watch it lol) I just thought I would share the news.
Please note: The title of my blog is very silly and the Cookie Monster is still thriving not crumbling. (Play on words are terribel I know lol)
