R2-D2 Cookie Jar: Chocolate Chips and Microchips
October 26th, 2008
There’s one thing you can say about R2-D2. He’s fiercely loyal, and will always do what’s needed to protect your stuff. So why wouldn’t he be the perfect guardian of your precious Tollhouse cookies?
I was just minding my own business (shopping online) this morning when I came across this great R2-D2 cookie jar. The hand-painted ceramic R2 stands about 12-inches tall and flips his lid, letting you put all your tasty baked morsels inside the little droid.
Now go figure that there’s a warning on the product page that reads: “The Star Wars Collectible Cookie Jars are intended for decorative and collectible purposes only. They are not intended to hold cookies or any kind of food item.” I don’t know about you guys, but I think I’ll take my chances on contracting lead poisoning if I can keep my cookies in R2′s head.
Cookiehead R2-D2 can be found over on Amazon

Hee hee. My mother actually has an old one from 1980 that sits upright. It’s ceramic and yep, the head comes off, and it has a rigid plastic liner insert inside. It’s wonderful to see sitting in her kitchen in a place of honour – she even puts a santa hat on it at holiday time.
Nice! I wonder if you can find one of these in Germany somewhere.
