Cookie Monster curbs cookie habit

BBC NEWS: "Cookie Monster, the biscuit-eating puppet on US children's show Sesame Street, will cut down on his favourite food as part of an anti-obesity drive. 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."
