What the...?

For Black Friday this year, Target set up a lot of displays of merchandise that they don't normally carry. One of the displays was of Hello Kitty housewares; the Hello Kitty clock radio, the HK toaster, the HK water cooler, the HK sandwich maker, and the HK gumball machine, if I recall correctly. (A far cry from what is available in Japan, of course. Hello Kitty body-fat monitor, anyone?)

Here's a picture of the packaging of the toaster:One thing about this particular thing always caught my eye. Now, Hello Kitty has no mouth. What the heck is she doing with the grape-jellied toast, just shoving it against her face?

Heh.

P.S. I'm not kidding about the Hello Kitty Body Fat Monitor.
