Universal has once again removed the Green Eggs and Ham sign from the Seuss Landing dining venue at Universal Islands of Adventure.
Green Eggs and Ham Sign Gone
The sign was first removed in the fall of 2019 as the quick-service restaurant was repainted. Five years later, it finally returned in November 2024. Blue, red, and yellow decorative elements were then added to the pole below the ham slice marquee.
But as of January 1, 2025, the sign is gone again, leaving an empty base and cords atop the marquee.
The sign, pictured below, depicted Sam-I-Am holding a plate of Green Eggs and Ham out to the reluctant character. The sign was seemingly held up by a red-gloved hand.
At the time of our above photo, the decorative elements down the pole hadn’t been reinstalled. It’s possible the sign was removed because more decorative pieces needed to be installed around its base.
Green Eggs and Ham mostly serves tater tot dishes, including Green Eggs & Ham Tots.
In 2021, Dr. Seuss Enterprises announced they would stop publishing and licensing six Dr. Seuss books because they “portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong.” At that time, Universal announced they would evaluate the use of these books in Seuss Landing. Since then, the land has seen a lot of work, although not much to do with the books in question. The “Brown & Blacks” ICEE sign was removed. Caro-Seuss-el and the “If I Ran the Zoo” playground underwent refurbishments. Most of the land’s entrance archway was torn down and never returned. Circus McGurkus closed in 2023 for refurbishment, reopening in early 2024. The Sneetches returned to their beaches this summer after a 2 1/2-year absence.
