Fruits & Vegetables

Mr. Potato Head, of course, is a man. A potato costume allows for plenty of gags while the party unfolds. A man in a potato costume can defend the bowl of chips in defense of his brothers. He can protest that he cannot eat a baked potato, or potatoes au gratin because it would be tantamount to cannibalism. The hilarity ensues. Plus, this costume allows party goers to rearrange the body parts just like a real Mr. Potato Head. Another example are the Fruit of the Loom Guys, who made longstanding careers dressing as fruits. The apple, the green bunch of grapes, the purple grapes, and the leaf, are very comical as figures of fun. Carrying around a pair of men's white underwear to help get your point across.

By projecting an image of wholesomeness and levity, a man dressed in a fruit costume or a vegetable costume will be the life of the party. Good-natured ribbing may come into play, but it is all in the spirit of good, clean fun. Anyone who has children knows that the Veggie Tales characters serve as whimsical role models who impart life-affirming lessons. Personifying one of these characters will cause offense to no one, even if they choose to take it ironically.

Environmental statements can be made by men wearing fruit and vegetable costumes too. In this day in age when organic and natural produce is so much in the news, wearing a fruit or vegetable costume can direct party conversations toward the importance of sustainable agriculture and recycling. Vegetarians and vegans particularly like men's fruit and vegetable costumes to promote their life choices. You see, men's Fruit Costumes can be a Halloween costume, a political statement or a dietary choice.
