Seen at the supermarket in the toys section...
This doll should come with a censor's health warning...

Brilliant. One day, when I finally make it to Crete, we'll have to get together and rant about all the ills in this world. Or, so as to not drone on for eons in misery about the state of this planet, we'll simply go for a nice coffee. Either way, I think we'll have a lot in common. : )
ReplyDeleteNasty.
ReplyDeleteWhat will they think of next?
ReplyDeleteI'm sure that toy is completely biodegradable as well...
ReplyDeleteIs that straight from McDonald's or sold in a toy store??? Whatever the case, it's a bit insane if you ask me ...
ReplyDeleteIck! Too bad she doesn't come with a cholesterol monitor and blood pressure kit! Loved your haiku poetry! :-)
ReplyDelete...and a censor's "mental" health warning too!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it. They sure know how to play with kids' minds.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, I am just so embarrassed to be American, I could scream! This doll makes me want to assert my French-by-marriage citizenship and cozy up to Jose Bove (radical French activist known for campaign against "macdo" as the French pronounce it). At least next week, I'll get to feel proud as I watch the inauguration of Barack Obama--regardless of your politics, it's a brilliant moment in U.S. history and leadership. (Now if only he could quit smoking...!)
ReplyDeleteI followed the link to you blog from History of Greek Food and I look forward to reading more of your posts!
ReplyDeleteI hope it doesn't sell, but if it does, it means that consumers are driving the market to do stupid things.
