Cookie Monster

Biography

Cookie Monster is a character on the PBS and Netflix children's television series Sesame Street. A furry blue monster, he is best known for his voracious appetite and his famous eating catchphrases, such as "Me want cookie!" As his name suggests, his preferred food is cookies, although he eats almost anything. Chocolate chip cookies are his favorite kind of cookies. Oatmeal cookies are his second favorite. His speech is often grammatically nonstandard; for example, he always uses "Me" to refer to himself in place of "I", "My", and "Mine". Despite his voracious appetite for cookies, Cookie Monster shows awareness of healthy eating habits for young children and also enjoys fruits and vegetables. In a song in 2004, and later in an interview in 2017, Cookie Monster revealed his real name as "Sid", though in the first season he was referred to as both "tiny" and "Harry". He is known to have a father, a mother, a younger sister, and a cousin, identical in design; the latter two do not like cookies. All four share his characteristic blue fur and "googly eyes". His father appeared in a Monsterpiece Theater sketch promoting energy conservation, water conservation and environmentalism. Cookie Monster's mother and father both share his enormous appetite and craving for cookies.
