At its heart, Pearls Before Swine is the comic strip tale of two friends: an arrogant Rat who thinks he knows it all and a slow-witted Pig who doesn't know any better. Together, this pair offers caustic commentary on humanity's quest for the unattainable. Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams says that Pearls is "one of the few comics that make me laugh out loud." The strip has twice won the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben division award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip – in 2003 and in 2006.

@John P
It’s the Diet Coke that does the trick.

It’s still weird that Pig is eating bacon. Though it is very good…

The Diet Coke washes all that fattening stuff right through you.

Oh and add a high calorie milkshake as well.

Is Pig going cannibal? He’s having a burger with BACON! But if it’s turkey bacon, never mind.

If Pig’s order was to go, it would be a heart attack in a sack.

Pig’s eating bacon?

I remember when Potsie did this gag with Al on Happy Days … albeit without the cannibalism angle.

I wonder what Pig thinks bacon is?

Pig eats bacon all the time. He loves BLTs.

Yes, yes, Pig loves bacon! (I suspect he doesn’t know whence it comes.) And, yes, the diet Coke is the clincher in this deal. But Pig’s heart is in the right place—for now….

The first ever (I think) Pearls treasury was subtitled “BLTs Taste So Darn Good”…
That was Pig’s excuse for eating them…
and he’s munching one on the cover.
