"ridiculous"
"HOW THE HELL could they change an innocent childhood caractor into something that he isnt?"
"Unbelieveable. Just unbelieveable. Yes, Cookie Monster promotes eating cookies. Every kid enjoys cookies whether or not Cookie Monster tells them this or not. We should blame ourselves for allowing our complacency to get the best of us. Do not blame Cooki"
"the veggie monster is dumb! I'm a ten year girl and the cookie monster does not make me want to eat cookies!!! He's one of my favorite characters please don't change him!!! ):("
"Stop feeding your children cookies. Start feeding them veggies. Is it that hard?"
"it's rediculous!"
"I am appalled that this name change occured. Instead of teaching children that they can have a treat after a balanced meal which includes veggies, we take all cookies away make this Sesame Street icon into a ridiculous farce "Veggie Monster""
"not cookie monsters fault thier kids are fat"
"this is the most rediculas thing that has ever happened! Parents are responsible for our childrens wieght and activities! NOT THE COOKIE MONSTER..BRING BACK OUR COOKIE MONSTER!!!!!"
"Please give us back our Cookie Monster."
"i grew up with cookie monster and managed to know how to eat right. blame the parents feeding the kids the garbage, not the puppet on tv"
"Cookies taste better anyway..."
"its stupid just because they cant take responsibility for their own actions they dont have to push the blame on a fictional character"
"This is an outrage, we want the cookie monster back NAO! D:( Thank you for making this petition."
"I support this petition"
"В"
"I support this petition"
"We want Cookie back S.S. is not the same with out him!"
"the 'cookie' monster's name is classic. blaming the cookie monster for obesity is just parents not wanting to beleive that its not their fault and chosing a name to blame it on. COOKIE MONSTER IS DA |BOMB AND ROCK ALL YO SOX"
"I support this petition"
"obesity isn't from the character. it's the PARENTS not teaching "all things in moderation". COOKIES ARE NOT BAD THINGS!"
"Serisouly people how sad eh?"
"C is for cool cookies, and V is for veggies suck! Change it back, *please!!! *not optional"
"The change was absurd"
"I'm 40. I grew up with Cookie Monster, et al., and as a child I never devoured cookies, or boxes, or whatever Cookie Monster put in his mouth! Get REAL PBS! He is the humorous COOKIE MONSTER, not a lame, PC, veggie monster. I guess the next PC change will"
