You see, I don't get from this that Cookie eats too many cookies... What I get from this is that CTW is going to use Cookie Monster to teach good eating habits...
Quite frankly if I was working at CTW and wanted to give a lesson on making good eating choices I too would choose a character who is known for eating... Besides, it isn't like they are saying cookies are bad or that Cookie Monster shouldn't eat cookies or even stop eating them in his monsterly way... He's still Cookie Monster. He's just learning a new lesson... just like Big Bird learned a new lesson when Mr. Hooper died (that might be a little before your time... I was part of the first group to be raised on the show).
