Sesame Street - Healthy Food Posted by: NantoVision
Video duration: 161 seconds Cookie kicks it old school, from 1987. This song was written by Chris Cerf, and I actually like the original version, made before the show's recent nutrition obsession. 15 years later the song was remade with a guest vocal by Wyclef Jean of the Fugees, but I can't stand the new version.
