The company made the announcement on Thursday in a press release that read, “Hasbro is making sure all feel welcome in the Potato Head world by officially dropping the Mr. Potato Head in an effort to make the toy gender-neutral has inspired a lot of food for thought. Hasbro’s decision to drop the “Mr.” from Mr. POTATO HEAD aren’t going anywhere and will remain MR.
“While it was announced today that the POTATO HEAD brand name & logo are dropping the ‘MR.’ I yam proud to confirm that MR. POTATO HEAD isn’t going anywhere!” the tweet read.
UPDATE: After announcing Potato Head’s new gender-neutral moniker earlier on Thursday, Hasbro issued a pun-filled statement on Twitter, clarifying that it’s renaming the toy line and not the individual toys themselves.
