Tim Hollis sent this in:

Last night, while clearing things out of a glass display case, I found the this plastic bag that someone sent to me probably 20 years ago. I thought you might get a chuckle out of such blatant H-B trademark infringement. All I can say is that it’s a good thing Officer Dibble wasn’t a vegetarian… or a rabbit…

OK- It’s Fred Flintstone as a carrot-rabbit with a Shakey’s Pizza hat!
NOW who’s veggin’ who? Are you SURE you aren’t pullin’ my legume?

Sorry, I’ll stop now…

This is one of those “What If” scenarios: What if HB had come up with “Veggietales?”

That beats my “Hong Kong Turnip” plastic bag all to hell.

I almost didn’t recognize the resemblance!

I think this is a bit of a stretch, don’t you?

Great piece of graphics. Do you still have it, if so I would like to purchase it for a collection, of yes! carrot bags!!

Hmmm… Are carrot bags going to be the fruit box labels of the new millenium?

Dave, I hope you’re kidding. A stretch? How? Looks like Top Cat in a carrot costume. That’s a pretty straightforward lift in anyone’s book.
