I'm sure this is the same snowman that local dairy Alpenrose has used on their eggnog cartons since at least the mid-'50s. Somehow I never noticed it before. There's something about the design that seems sort of "off."

The snowman's expression seems to say "Yeah, pal, I know you can't drink this stuff without tossing in at least one shot of Seagram's 7. Better hit the liquor store on the way home." His knowing wink comes across as snarky and more than a little patronizing. I get the feeling that this Frosty is a total teetotaler.

Here's hoping they never change the design.
