Dole has a great kids’ site promoting fruits and vegetables. Each item is made into a cartoon character. To wit: Kevin Kiwi. Each character’s page opens with a full-throated audio greeting which is without fail hi-larious.

My other faves are Cornelius Corn and Kenny Canned Pineapple. Kenny sounds like he’s hopped up on goofballs but makes up for it by telling us his dream of someday being a mechanical engineer.

“My idol is a person named Henry Ginaca,” Kenny writes. “In 1913, Mr. Ginaca invented a pineapple cutting machine. The machine removes the shell, the core, and the ends of the pineapple so that the pineapple can be canned.” Fascinating. And educational, too!
