From "The Spud King Is Naked" From about.com... Mr. Potato Head History... In 1966, Mr. Potato Head acquired a new wrinkle with the addition of jumping Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head.... What is that new wrinkle???Could it be a different spud? Spuds Campbell, a former potato patch resident becomes the new and improved Mr. Potato Head. Oh the deception for all these years we thought Mr. Potato Head was the same spud we knew as children...those of us who were children of the '60's..... inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blMrPotatoHead.htm?=lYes, in 1966, it was the year to replace Mr. Potato Head. Those scoundrels not only replaced JPM, but Mr. Potato Head.... Our childhoods were filled with confusion and lies..... Here's the smoking gun proof that the spud we call Mr. Potato Head is really Mr. Fotato Head strongmuseum.org/NTHoF/MrPot.html Notice the replacement has bigger feet and no body? But he has arms.... "Here's another clue for you all....the potato was bald" mrpotatohead.net/1960/19608.htm(Mean) Mr. Mustard Head....oh yeah She came in through the kitchen window, protected by her silver spoon Now she sucks her thumb and wonders while she dates an older goon.... Oh yeah, all right, oh you're gonna be my french fries...tonight.... ...and in the end the spuds you bake, is equal to the spuds you ate....aaahhhhh just pass the eggnog boys and I'll be fine....

Well... this is a MASTERPIECE of a post. ;D Very hilarious. It made me giggle. I laughed. I cried. I read the book and saw the film... 5 stars, btw. And then I suddenly became... HUNGRY! Soooo... I emailed Mr Fotato head, and I convinced him to come to my home town. We met at a small coffee shop. We embraced. We laughed till we cried. We shared stories and talked about days gone by and how he was a loveable, snugable, hugable imposter! Then... just when we were bonding I... I... I PICKED HIM UP AND TOOK HIM HOME AND THREW HIM IN A POT OF BOILING WATER AND ATE HIM!! Boy, was he ever delicious! Of course, this means that he'll have to be replaced. Maybe SPUD's McKenzie is available. Yes, I have heard of him. Neil Young once had him guest star in a video he'd made called Ummm... I forget. This Note's For You?! Anyhoooo... thank you for sharing this wonderful post, Lovely Rita. I'm sorry that I ate Mr Fotato Head. But I just couldn't help myself. You'll of course need a replacement. Maybe Britney Spears is available. I hear she's not too busy these days and she sorta looks the part. I guess... P.S. When eating Fotatos, always pour on lot's and lot's of ketchup. Yummmy.... and be sure to serve lot's of broccoli danishes and asparagus juice on the side.

Thanks Miss Vaggie...for the comments....but now that you've eaten Mr. Fotato Head...who will replace him? I'm devastated...just when I got used to the spud with big feet and wiry white arms...you made meal of him.... Maybe the Potato legend needs to be put to rest. Raise up another veggie and make him a toy.... Rutabega.....Turnip.....Parsnips.... Elvis Parsnips... thank you, very much....spinach juice sounds good right about now..I haven't had any in months....not due to shortage in spinach, but I get tired of cleaning my Jack LaLanne juicer..those spinach stains are nasty....

I'm totally sorry, Lovely Rita. But I was really hungry. And now I feel... so totally guilty. I shouldn't have eaten Mr Fotato Head. Your post was very touching and your ideas sound delicious. Maybe there's a zucchini toy on the way. Or a beet toy. Of course, somebody will probably replace them also... If it were up to me I'd bring Mr Fotato Head back. But that would mean throwing up. And that's soooo gross! Mr Fotato Head. We hardly knew you. Well, in a world where Hilary Fluff can sell 15 million CD's, what do you expect!

We don't want Mr. Fotato head brought back up...else he'd be called Mr. Barf Pile....and we don't want to go there....
I suppose "Veggie Tales" will have to suffice for the veggie loving children.
I don't know if Mr. Potato Head is still a hot commodity....

If there was a Veggie Tales Fesus he'd be eaten with the perfect red wine.

Maybe they should go back to using real potatoes....that way when he wears out, you can snack on him...
