The Berger and Wyse food cartoons are a diet of neurotic vegetables, omnivorous Godzillas and restaurant parody. This single-panel comic appears weekly in the Guardian (UK), and has been published as an anthology by Absolute Press (an imprint of Bloomsbury). There are some recurring themes and characters, but stylistically this cartoon is free to roam to wherever food plays a part. What do tomatoes think of Andy Warhol? Is it upsetting to fruit that "bananas" means crazy? Can you eat Schrödingers cat food? Someone has to answer these burning questions.

It seems to take these guys a while to come up with something, but when they do they really nail it. Great for everyone aspiring to be ironic, recursive postmodernists.

If they manage to do it, it would be Lamarckable.

I don’t get it….. Because fruit doesn’t have hands? GMO? Not getting the parody here.

You’d think that an intelligent designer would give us hands, right? That’d be intelligent.
