Have you had your veggies and fruit fruit today?
When Epcot opened in 1982, There was an all audio-animatronic show called Kitchen Kabaret. The show was hosted Bonnie Appetite and introduced the acts in a musical revue and comedy format. The show advocated healthy eating and provided a primer on the four food groups: meat, dairy, grains and fruits/vegetables. Kitchen Kabaret featured many songs such as “Chase Those (Meal Time) Blue Away” and “Boogie Woogie Bakery Boy”, but none was as popular as “Veggie Veggie Fruit Fruit”. This song has remained very popular in pop-culture and appeared in Epcot Forever.
To Honor this classic attraction, I designed merchandise based on Kitchen Kabaret and the characters that were in the show. I pulled much of the graphic look from the 80’s and early 90’s. This attraction and these characters were extremely fun to design for. So much fun that I plan to do a part 2.
Enjoy!
