Hi Cookie Monster! Do you like your cookies to be softer or crunchier?
The_Iceman22882767 karma
What are your thoughts on cookies that have raisins in them instead of chocolate?
SuddenAborealStop2688 karma
Hi Cookie Monster,
There have always been rumors that you will be giving up your cookie habits and turning to healthier alternatives. Please don't ever do that. But I am curious how you and your friends balance your love of cookies with the importance of teaching young kids about moderation and healthy eating choices?
Keep up the great work!
Me_CookieMonster5231 karma
Me always be Cookie Monster. Me am what me am. Me love cookies, but me and me friends know cookies are a sometimes food. Me also eat fruits, veggies, and all sorts of stuff. Me monster, me not picky!
UnusualSoup2667 karma
Hello Cookie Monster, I watch every episode of Sesame Street. I have liked them so much. I have autism and other disabilities and am so happy Julia was on Sesame Street.
Do you think You will be on an episode with Julia one time soon?

Me would love to sing duet with Lady Gaga. Me and me friends are monsters after all. Me hope she see dis!
Me_CookieMonster7763 karma
If it chocolate chippie, it the chippies. If it oatmeal raisin, it the raisins. But me always think the most important part of cookie is having enough to share with friends.
Me_CookieMonster4034 karma
Me thinks your best bet is to enter dis thing and win. Me fly you here and everything! Me even cashed in all me miles.
MajorParadox2014 karma
When I was younger, I came up with a Cookie Monster jingle.
🎵 Cookie Monster has two feet, do dah, do dah! 🎵
🎵 Every cookie has its day, do dah do dah day, hey! 🎵
What do you think?
DoubleSuited1952 karma
What's up Cookie Monster, thanks for doing this. I own the seminal 1983 album Born to Add on vinyl (because vinyl sounds better), and personally think your song Hey Food is the best cut on the album. Question: why hasn't the Sesame Street cast put out more albums? Or, if they have (and please don't take offense), what do you feel is the reason the cast creatively peaked, musically, in the early 1980s (Sesame Street Fever is also an excellent album)?
Thanks. Longtime fan.
Curiousful1733 karma
How can we nominate you for the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor? You are the funniest, and your timing has only gotten better over the years. 🍪💙

cangeladaniel1122 karma
Would you prefer one GIANT cookie of the same flavor, or lots and lots of small cookies of different flavors?
petertmcqueeny917 karma
My (almost) two-year-old daughter does not like cookies. I have given her Oreos, and chocolate chip cookies, and even home made honey cookies, and she never eats more than a nibble. What should I do??? Is there some kind of cookie monster boot camp I can take her to?
Me_CookieMonster2241 karma
Not all kids, monsters, or Snuffleupagus' like cookies and dat okay. That mean there more cookies for me!
lottiereddit911 karma

Barnacle_Ed904 karma
Mr. Monster, I've been a lifelong fan. Good to have you with us here!
You've gone on the record in recent years stating that cookies are a "sometimes food". What other foods do you like to eat besides cookies, and how often is "sometimes" for your cookie eating habits?
Me_CookieMonster1485 karma
Me make sure to always eat healthy fruits and vegetables. Me want to set good example for me friends on Sesame Street like Elmo, and Abby.
Cookies are the perfect dessert after healthy meal, but not every day.
Me_CookieMonster1984 karma
Gonger. No Grover. No Abby. No Elmo. Oh, me have so many friends on Sesame Street me can't choose just one.
fatesarchitect775 karma

Hello, Cookie Monster!
What is your opinion on people who put out cookies that look like chocolate chippie but turn out to be raisin??
Madness_UK516 karma
Hi Cookie Monster!
If all of your friends on Sesame Street suddenly turned into cookies, who do you think would taste the best?
Me_CookieMonster1296 karma
Me hope dat never happen. Me think friends more important than cookies!
PaleMoonlight89469 karma
Chocolate chip cookies are clearly the best. But what is your favorite thing to add to a chocolate chip cookie? (Pretzel, peanut butter chips, dark chocolate chips, etc).
swirlyglasses1413 karma
A B C D E F Cookie Monster!
Questions: What new cookies would you like to invented?
Do you ever accidentally eat your fur?
What's been your most memorable experience working with a kid?
Me_CookieMonster601 karma

raymo1986380 karma
I just donated, thanks for providing such amazing and educational entertainment to children for so many years!
My question - what's your favorite song?
herbivorousanimist333 karma
How do you keep your fur in such great condition? I've been admiring you since 1977 and can't help but wonder how you maintain it. My own hair has lost a little shine over the years, but your fur has retained its lustre. Do you attribute it to your particular shade of blue?
Me_CookieMonster543 karma
Me do lots of monster grooming. It not easy taking care of all this fur!
yawetag12294 karma
OK, Cookie Monster, tell the truth.
How cool is Dan Lewis? I've followed his newsletter for years, and always envied the fact he worked with you.
slide_potentiometer197 karma
You're amazing for leaning in to your love of cookies and turning that into a social media following. Was this your plan or did you dream of a different career growing up?
Me_CookieMonster403 karma
Me still a growing monster! Me learning all the time. Me training to be a chef with me friend Gonger.
DoinItDirty153 karma
Now Cookie Monster, if I remember correctly, you had a brief stint as Vegetable Monster. Was this an instance of a public rebranding attempt or an identity crisis, as it were?
Edit: What a great day
Me_CookieMonster283 karma
Me was and will always be Cookie Monster! Me am who me am! Me a happy healthy monster who learn that cookies a sometimes food.
Bogo85151 karma
Cookie Monster! Big fan - say, how do you keep your fur looking so good all the time?
Naabi130 karma
Hello mister cookie !

jakkoffcantt39 karma
If one type of cookie had to be wiped out of existence, which would it be?
Me_CookieMonster140 karma
The thought of losing a cookie hard for me to think about. Why you do dis to me?
_valleyone_2 karma
How do you feel about the push to rebrand as a vegetable-eating monster?
Two_Spaghetti_Meals13972 karma
Hey man, not sure who else to turn to at this point... I've been trying to think of things that start with "C". If you took a bite out of the moon, it would look like a "C", but that doesn't really count. Any ideas?
