This is going WAY to far... From the BBC Website http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/4432415.stm Cookie Monster curbs cookie habit The blue-furred muppet who used to sing "C is for Cookie" will now tell viewers that "A Cookie is a Sometimes Food". Each episode of the show's new series will begin with a "health tip" about healthy foods and physical activity. A Sesame Street representative said the popular character would be "broadening his eating habits" in future. Talking vegetables "We are not putting him on a diet, and we would never take the position of no sugar," said Dr Rosemarie T Truglio, the show's vice president of research and education. "We're teaching him moderation." New characters such as talking aubergines and carrots will be introduced, while guests stars such as soul singer Alicia Keys will talk about the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Almost one in three children in the US is now overweight, as opposed to one in 25 in the UK. Sesame Street begins its 36th season on America's PBS network on Monday. It is broadcast in over 120 countries, with more than 20 local versions being made. Last year Cookie Monster - originally played by Muppets regular Frank Oz, the voice of Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear - revealed that before eating his first cookie his name was Sid. "A .44 magnum beats 4 Aces everytime..." |

When I used to babysot foe this family, that was the only song I'd sing with the kids. "C is for Cookie, and Cookie is for me!" God, I love it. "Retreat, hell! We just got here!"-Captain Lloyd Williams, 2nd Marine Division, Belleau Wood, France, WWI |
