Profile PictureNo Meat Today

Square Poster Miss Potatoe Head

This cow was created to celebrate World Vegetarian Day 2020, on Oct 1, and is available in the No Meat Today app as a special look any cow attracted that day will put on.


🐮 Story of this cow

I'm a big fan of watermelon 🍉. When I lived in Vietnam, I would drink watermelon juice just about every day. 

Good times.

Now that I'm back in France, I can only eat some during summertime. But I eat a lot more potatoes. I created this cow just as the watermelon season ended, so this was a nice way to keep the spirit going.

My daughter loves bananas, and my wife loves strawberries, so they had to make an appearance. A friend offered me eggplants (from his parent's garden) days before the drawing, and a red strawberry in front of a red watermelon would have been difficult (for me) to pull off. Plus, that's this cow's style anyway.

Carrots were an obvious choice. At least that's how my subconscious explained it to me after it forced the image in my mind.

And the pop-corns, well… you get it.

🤓 Why is she called Potatoe and not Potato? 

It started with a typo (I'm not related to D. Quayle), but I decided that the "e" added a French touch to the name (the feminine form of a name is obtained by adding a silent "e" to the masculine form - and vice versa).

😱 Those open wounds look terrible. Is she in pain?

Absolutely not, and she doesn't understand what you mean. She doesn't attract more flies than your average cow.

🕵️ You did that to her, Arnaud!

OK, good police work. But no, I swear! Again, she was born that way, and even though I love watermelon, I could never hurt such a marvelous creature.


🌟 Why would I buy this?

  • To get a smile on your face every time you see it.
  • To put a smile on someone else's face.
  • As a prank to someone who hates vegetables
  • Because it will make your life funnier
  • To decorate a room

  • To make me happy (I kid you not, my heart races every time I get notified about a sale)
  • Because you couldn't get the cow in the app and you want it
  • Because you got the cow in the app and you want more of it


🤔 You forgot the brand. Are you insane?

I have decided not to put the "No Meat Today" name on any of the products for several reasons :

  • There's no room for it without killing the aesthetic. On the stickers, it would mess with the cut, and on prints, I would have to spend hours placing the name correctly for each print size, plus I find that it attracts the eye too much
  • I would rather have you enjoy clean designs multiple times every day rather than improve my chances for another sale. The occurrence of the former vastly outweighs that of the latter, and I want you to be happy.
  • The name is not the brand, the cow is: the cow is the brand, and while there are designs (like the Bantha) that take some distance from it, they mostly look alike. My daughter calls them all "daddy's cow." ☺️


🏭 About the prints

Those Museum-quality posters are made on thick and durable matte paper. Each poster is giclée-printed on archival, acid-free paper that yields brilliant prints to brighten up any room.

They are printed and shipped by Printful, because, let's face it, my printer would do an awful job and probably run out of ink midway.


🚚 About shipping, orders, and return policies

You can find answers to all your questions on this dedicated page, but to put it short:

  • 1-2 weeks to get it in your mailbox for most people
  • you'll receive a tracking link when your order ships out
  • no returns or exchanges unless it would be fair to do so - DMs open @nomeat_today or by email via the app.


🙌 Where will my money go?

About 60% of the price before shipping goes to Gumroad (here), Printful (printer), and Taxes.

The rest goes to me, but I redirect 5% towards charities acting in favor of animal welfare, oceans & trees.


👋 Wait, who are you again, and what am I doing here?

My name is Arnaud Joubay (@sowenjub), and I created an iOS app called No Meat Today to help me eat less meat. It became way too idiotic and useful to keep it just to myself, so I decided to publish it.

Since then, I've been creating more and more cows that you can unlock in the app on special occasions.

Regarding what you are doing here, some of it is clear (your parents did something good, you, and you followed a web link or something), and some aren't. If you're like most of us, you might be procrastinating about some boring thing you'll end up doing in a rush, or it's bedtime, and you used your phone even though you need to sleep and swore not to do that anymore.

Anyhow, stop all that thinking, and treat yourself; you deserve it.


👉 Don't miss the other designs and formats!

There are multiple cow designs, and each one comes in 4 formats:

  • Stickers for your laptop, car, helmet, phone, bag, fridge, notebook…
