Again, Google is putting “Cookie Monster”, one of the Sesame’s Street characters, now on their search page. Yesterday, they put Big Bird’s feet on their site.
This article is related to our previous article: Google and Sesame Street celebrating the show’s 40th birthday (November 10).
Here’s another character from the Sesame Street called the Cookie Monster.
Cookie Monster
He is best known for his voracious appetite and his famous eating phrases: “Me want cookie!”, “Me eat cookie!”, and “Om Nom nom nom” (said through a mouth full of food). He often eats anything and everything, including danishes, donuts, lettuce, apples, bananas, as well as normally inedible objects such as salt and pepper shakers, signs, napkins, pencils, typewriters, telephones, motorcycles, Peabody Awards, trucks, a safe, a VW Beetle, and the Letter of the Day. However, as his name suggests, his preferred food is cookies. Chocolate chip cookies are his favorite kind; oatmeal cookies are his second favorite. In a song in 2004, Cookie Monster revealed that, before he ate his first cookie, he believes his name was Sid. Showing awareness of healthy eating habits for children, since 2006 he has said that cookies are “a sometime snack” and that he also likes fruits and eggplant.
He is known to have a mother, a younger sister, and an identically-designed cousin, who all share his characteristic blue fur and “googly eyes”. He also has a father, who appeared in a Monsterpiece Theater sketch promoting energy conservation, water conservation and environmentalism. Both Cookie Monster’s mother and father have his enormous appetite. He and his Sesame Street friends are popular motifs on t-shirts, and he has also appeared as a guest star on The Martha Stewart Show. Naturally, he was overjoyed at the fact they were making cookies. He also appeared in a 2008 episode of The Colbert Report.

Cookie Monster vs Veggie Monster History
In 2006, in response to growing concerns about record levels of childhood obesity in the U.S.A., Sesame Street began airing segments entitled Healthy Habits for Life. In these segments, the Muppet characters of Sesame Street talk about healthy habits, such as eating properly and exercising. The Healthy Habits for Life segments spawned false Internet rumors that Cookie Monster’s name had been changed to Veggie Monster or would be taken off the show entirely.
