What Has Mr Potato Head Been Up To?
Last year it was announced that "Mr Potato Head goes gender neutral as Hasbro drops mister from brand name". The company offered public recognition that the toy is a potato and doesn't need a title. The brand name and logo will change to Potato head while the characters of Mr and Mrs Potato Head will live on!
