Sun-Maid Makeover
So I'm sure everyone has noticed the change to the Sun-Maid girl by now. Well...I found this really entertaining article (in my opinion at least) on Yahoo.
They compare the new Sun-Maid girl to a "Barbie Doll in Amish attire."
The original version of the girl is based off of a girl who was discovered drying her dark-colored curls at her parents' home in Fresno. Of course, the company has tweaked the design to keep up with the times but traditionally the final version of the tweak has always been based on the original girl.
The changes were actually implemented three years ago, and the company's president says they were prompted by their desire to educate consumers about healthy eating habits.
I personally don't like the new girl. She reminds me of the evil Barbie Dolls from the movie Toy Soilders...
