Hey kids!

Just picked this up at the supermarket. Getting healthy is fun. Gender stereotyping, not so much. Healthy for male fruits and veggies (broccoli & banana, naturally) means muscles. Healthy for female fruits (tomatoes & pineapples) must mean impossibly long eyelashes and big-come-smootch-me-now lips.

* No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited. [Where are coloring contests prohibited?]

Not to mention the pineapple female has skinny little arms. What's healthy about that? Good catch.

Interesting. Some anonymous person
told me today I should eat more bananas.
Maybe they meant "bananas" ???
Gosh almighty.

Pitiful, just pitiful. I can't even muster up a "they meant well" for this one.

Cammy, yeah, must everything be sexualized? Apparently so -- even a coloring contest. Pitiful indeed.
