Cookie Monster in Season 4. A closeup of Cookie Monster's eyes, showing his googly mechanism. Cookie Monster is a voracious monster and one of the main characters on Sesame Street. Covered with blue fur and possessing a pair of googly eyes, Cookie Monster has an insatiable appetite. As his name implies, his primary craving is cookies, but he can (and often does) consume anything and everything, from apples and pie to letters, flatware, and hubcaps. When Cookie Monster eats something, he makes a very distinct, loud munching "noise", often interpreted as "OMM- nom- nom- nom..".
Cookie Monster has a deep, growly voice, and generally speaks with simplistic diction, saying everything with "me" - for instance, "Me want cookie!", as opposed to "I want a cookie!"

Henson drew three monsters who appeared in a General Foods commercial that featured three crunchy snack foods: Wheels, Crowns and Flutes. Each snack was represented by a different monster. The Wheel- Stealer was a short, fuzzy monster with wonky eyes and sharply pointed teeth. The Flute- Snatcher was a speed demon with a long, sharp nose and windblown hair.
The Crown- Grabber was a hulk of a monster with a Boris Karloff accent and teeth that resembled giant knitting needles. These monsters had insatiable appetites for the snack foods they were named after. Each time the Muppet narrator, a human- looking fellow, fixes himself a tray of Wheels, Flutes and Crowns, they disappear before he can eat them. One by one, the monsters sneak in and zoom away with the snacks. Frustrated and peckish, the narrator warns viewers that these pesky monsters could be disguised as someone in your own home, at which point the monsters briefly turn into people and then dissolve back to monsters again.". As it turns out, the commercial was never aired — but all three monsters had a future in the Muppet cast. The Crown- Grabber was used in an Ed Sullivan Show sketch, in which he ruins a girl's beautiful day.
Known from then on as the Beautiful Day Monster, he made a number of appearances on Sesame Street and The Muppet Show. The Flute- Snatcher turned into a background monster from The Great Santa Claus Switch and The Muppet Show.
