If you read this as a sarcastic POV it is much better, I hope that was the intention, because it might make me kind of stabby otherwise.

Do we really need to deconstruct and retcon Sesame Street? Was anyone REALLY influenced by the gluttony of the Cookie Monster? I remember it being funny, and funny to do the impression, but noone I knew actually looked at it as a good idea to eat nothing but cookies in copious amounts. Perhaps that's because we were raised in a simpler time where the TV wasn't a babysitter and the sole purveyor of knowlege to kids.

Or perhaps I read too much into it. It's been know to happen.
