I mean, can you imagine bags of fresh veggies cut into legos and gears and stuff so you could build stuff out of them while you munched? I guarantee you - no more kids would be annoyed half out of their tiny wits by moms bitching at them to eat their veggies!
There’s a legal name thing going on here.
“Taking fully grown carrots and cutting them to a smaller size was the idea of California farmer Mike Yurosek.[2] Yurosek was unhappy at having to discard carrots because of slight rotting or imperfections, and looked for a way to reclaim what would otherwise be a waste product. He was able to acquire an industrial green bean cutter, which cut his carrots into two lengths, and by placing these lengths into a potato peeler, he created the original “baby-cut” carrot, branded “Bunny-Luv”.”
I’ve been juicing a lot recently - steroids mostly, but I’m talking about carrot juice here. I’ve noticed that if I wait too long between prepping the carrots and juicing them, they dry out and crack, sometimes the core comes out. I think this is a nice example of this.
I used to cut my daughter’s sandwiches into letters of the alphabet to spell out messages over the course of a week to get her to eat her bag lunch. I thought I was all sorts of clever… until I found out about Bento Moms.
Yeah, as a kid I used to extract the core so I could eat it separately. Then I realized that the flavor isn’t so lovely. Rather than going full OCD and eating only the outer core-less regions from then on, I stuck with the old standby: always splitting bananas into three segments. Also, eating every bit of coating off Hostess HoHos
Also: CANNOT UN-SEE: bunny-luv logo is a female body part?! With HUGE THROBBING CARROT in dangerous proximity.
The logo has a backstory: the owner’s daughter designed it after Warner Bros legal dept came after them for their previous logo, which apparently resembled Bugs Bunny a bit too much. The daughter created several versions, and let the WB lawyers choose which one to use. Covert Freudian forces employed? But then, fruit-crate label art has a long suggestive and non-PC history, especially melons.
