this kinda struck me last night after watching the Rock/Punk segment, does the Rock or WWE realise that all these products they keep mentioning aren't available outside of North America so the references completely lost on the average kid watching Raw.
i mean i know what fruity pepples are due to American Television but i did have to look up what the f*** Cookie Puss was.
sorry if this seems random and insignificant but they do have the word "World" in their title

Cookie Puss (Carvel) is regional as well, not even nationwide.

The vast majority of the people watching live in the US so they don't care. I will say that most in the US probably have no clue about Cookie Puss since it's a mainly a regional thing. Also, the company is only WWE. There is no World, Wrestling or Entertainment in the name (or the company har har) anymore. Cookie Puss (Carvel) is regional as well, not even nationwide. I had to double check but they do have stores coast to coast, just far and away the vast majority being in the Northeast. |

I had no idea what it was at the time, and now that I do it somehow manages to become an even lamer insult. Can't wait for Rock to go away again... or at least stop with the kiddy jokes... in fact, they're not even kiddy jokes. Little kids would be too embarrassed to call someone a Cookie Puss.

If you're going to limit yourself to references that only the entire globe will get you're going to be pretty bland. Not everybody has to get everything.

And even in the NE, Carvel is barely the presence it used to be. All the Carvels I knew off have been gone for years. |

I only found out what Cookie Puss was when I had to look up Fudgie the Whale after that awful Donald vs. Rosie skit.

It was the name of the Beastie Boys first single. I thought he was being uber-hipster.

I only know of Cookie Puss because of an old Howard Stern bit where Fred bought his mom a Carvel Ice Cream cake, so Howard and the others made fun of him relentlessly over it.
But here's a Carvel commercial with Cookie Puss:
