Customs officers discovered nearly 10.5 ounces of ecstasy tablets hidden inside a Mr. Potato Head toy sent to Australia from Ireland, the agency said Thursday.

Upon opening the parcel, the officers were greeted with the smiling face of the popular children’s toy, which features a potato-like head and removable facial features. But when they removed a panel from the back of the toy, the officers found 10.34 ounces of ecstasy in a plastic bag.

So, a potato head full of drugs sent from Ireland to Australia. Enough to keep any Glasgow stand-up comic working for a half-hour.



  1. As was not quite said years (and years and years) ago, ‘Remember what the doormouse said … feed your Mr. Potato Head …’

  2. Les says:

    Ms. Potato Head said “no comment” when question by the media.

  3. Gary Marks says:

    When Mr. Potato Head was questioned by a reporter, he said that he was ecstatic.

  6. Improbus says:

    A little ecstasy trivia.

    Ecstasy, 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-meth amphetamine (MDMA) is a synthetic chemical that can be derived from an essential oil of the sassafras tree.

    No wonder the original A&W Root Beer used to be so ecstatic..

    Cheers

    Mr. Potato used to be such a great guy. Friendly. Loved by kids all over. Fun at parties. But all those drugs have gone to his head.

    Just wait until Mrs. Potatohead gets ahold of his ears…… and his nose, eyes, mouth….
