    Is this assigned seating or what ? Suzie ! Move your little rear end somewhere else.

    It’s a perverse attraction for Suzie. Like a train wreck, you want to look away, but…

    Calvin should start a “cure obesity” workshop.

    I’m not sure what twinkies are, but I suspect they’re not on Weightwatchers’ list of recommended food items.

    A masterclass on the not so subtle forms of persuasion.

    For Gweedo: maybe the last seats available are the ones near Calvin?

    For cook13mon5t3r: good point–but Calvin has the gift of “selective perception” on the bads of the foods.

    Twinkies are wonderful. They never die. I bet I still have Twinkie parts in my tummy from high school.
    c00k13m0n5t3r: Twinkies can be found in any grocery store in the USA. I would describe them as a small rectangular sponge cake with a sweet cream filling and lots of preservatives.

    What are Twinkies?

    Only the most delicious apocalypse-safe food in the world!

    For those unaware of the Twinkie: think spongecake made from the most unnatural, man-made products in the world stuffed with cream that is not in fact cream, but is more solidified sugar. These two unatural, logic-defying substances, when taken together, give you the sense of biting an orange, a cake and a lemon all at once while also licking a bowl of cake batter.

    mmmmmm … Twinkies … I love thee two at a time …

    You can tell Calvin was being written before our politically correct Food Nazis started telling us what we can and cannot eat.

    TWINKIES???!!??!!? They’re of the Devil, I tell you!! I am sure that Watterson caused a multitude of children to be fat with this panel alone …

    @ Zippy: I am sure Garfield, with his rampant gluttony, was worse than Calvin in promoting bad eating habits in children.

    Optimystic - actually, I think Cookie Monster was probably the worst influence of all on little kids eating habits.

    I just read that Spam is doing marvellously well now during our financial meltdown.

    There is a restaurant near where I work that features deep-fried Twinkies for dessert. Honest,…… you know that couldn’t be made up, lol

    Calvin’s talk made Susie losing her appetite during the lunch time. Ha!
    I never like the Twinkies because the filling is way too much sweet. Ack!

    Add Whipped cream (can) spray in one of the holes for EXTRA treat :0000

    Being ahead of his time with is concern for the content of our food, Calvin grew up to be the head of the FDA.

    Or I hear you can go the the Minnesota State Fair and get deep-fried Twinkies on a stick. (along with all sorts of other food items on a stick, or deep fried, or both.)

    I’m not saying Twinkies are un-natural or over-preservativized, but the packages I saw on the grocery shelf today say, “Best before Stardate 30620.1.”

    It’s pretty bad when we can’t appreciate a comic for the humor and have to make a political statement about every one of them. Can’t we all just laugh together? LOL

    im with you cgrl78 it seems we are always taking the fun out of the comics on here.

    I love Calvin’s ‘ew gross’ expressions such as that fine example seen in Panel 2.
