Some companies design their mascots from the get-go to look like a man in a suit. When I was a kid, the Putt-Putt mascot “Buster Ball” was a particularly solid example of this, with arms too short to hold a putter. As Happy Gilmore might suggest, he was too good for his home.

Knorrli, pictured here, is the spokessprite for Knorr soup in Europe. Seems harmless enough, doesn’t he? Imagine running into him in your favorite supermarket.

Heaven help you Switzerlanders if The Laughing Cow ever decides to do a victory lap.
