C is for Carrot?

What is the name of all things scared to my youth has PBS done now? Surely there must be another way to explain to children about eating healthy other than destroying my childhood image of the Cookie Monster? Who can’t remember that lovable blue fur-ball devouring cookies and as all the cookie crumbs flew everywhere?

There's even a new song -- "A Cookie Is a Sometimes Food," where Cookie Monster learns there are "anytime" foods and "sometimes" foods.

Now how many parents actually let their kids eat cookies at each and every request? Yes Citizens, it is a sad day when poor Cookie Monster is arrested by PC Police.

And what about that poor, green homeless person, Oscar? He's living in a trash can, for God's sake! And that's the Republ--- er, I mean, the Cookie Monster's fault. Probably hording all his cookies and investing them.

Off with his head!

It probably isn't the cookie. I would guess more along the lines of 'Political Correctness'. Anita Bryant didn't support Gays and Lesbians and you don't see her pushing Orange Juice anymore do you. The 'Cookie Monster' PO'd somebody.
