Spyro? Crash? Fucking Master Chief?
The closest i could think of is Minecrafts steve but even then its a recognisable image but not a name, its very rare i see someone who doens't know callie, marie, pearl and marina.
Its wierd because in the gen before last everyone tried with things like Ty the tasmanian tiger and blinks the timesweeper but we have seen so much merch, live action stage shows, cameos on two of nintendos biggest selling franchise with mario kart and smash and even /v/ has had a more dedicated splatoon userbase than we did with Monhun in the 4U days and thats saying something.
Can you remember the last time a game company had such a big mascot win? Pikachu in 97 still seems to remain the post mario king of worldwide videoame mascot recognisability but i can't think of anything since that comes close but Captain King, Default Minecraft player character and neither seem as popular now as the Squid kids.

It's still pretty stupid that they market things as being gluten free when they're not wheat-based and there's no reason for there to be gluten in the first place.

Okay, Satan. But 2B does have defining physical features. You could remove her hair but her eyes, lips and face mole would still give her face an identity.

This is why character design includes the clothes, and characters are rarely seen outside of a standard costume. The design, clothes included, is sort of a symbol for the character, and any meanings attached to them.

Kosher salt has a larger Salt grain compared to regular table salt, meaning that it doesn't pack as tight and when you're measuring salt by volume you need to add more kosher to keep the measurements accurate to table salt.

It's less "healthy" and more "proper" to them. Kosher foods (and everything that involves them) are inspected by an official. It also can't touch anything non-kosher, and when served cannot be OPENED except by the person consuming it, to preserve the chain. It's essentially eating as a religious ritual.
Although, considering the lax enforcement of health codes in the USA, it's probably statistically "healthier", as in: "less likely to get you infected with something nasty".
