Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 14, 2019

Shouldn’t that be “uneaten”? The pre-eaten have been eaten and are in your digestive system, if not past it.

Face the fact – leftovers are really “pre-garbage”

Pre-eaten food is for the birds.

Previously sampled?

Isn’t pre-eaten food kind of like ABC gum, already been chewed?

Rapid deployment future comestibles.

I guess that beats being used food.

“Petri Dish” might be a better name for it.

“Nascent Garbage” fits better.

Hah! Euphemisims….George Carlin’s take:

I agree. “Leftovers” has a sinister connotation. “Rightovers” FTW !

So, he thought “leftover” was demeaning, but NOT “pre-eaten”?

New Extreme Sport: Long distance Preeaten Food Hurling!

Pre-tossed cookies anyone…get ‘em while they’re hot.

And what’s the deal with ‘flight attendants?’ Originally passenger ship servers were called ‘stewards.’ Along came commercial aviation and and the companies hired pretty nurses to serve meals and shame businessmen into flying. [if this little lady can fly every day, surely you’re not afraid to get on board] So how did we go from ‘stewardesses’ to ‘flight attendants’ without just taking a step back to ‘stewards?’ I demand an explanation!

Politically Correct = Painfully Condescending

Yesterday’s menu items … (Item and Date on a label so you know what is in container and when you made it) …… Croc Power !

food survivors

I think that potato souffle has gone bad…

How about the gentler re-heatings?

I guess you could always take the “pre-eatens” down to the refuse receptacle where the Municipal Sanitation Engineer will transport them to the recycling and refuse collection point…

How about “Transcribed for consumption at a more convenient time”?

keep in mind, in the Olden Days people used to take leftovers home in a “Doggie bag”; bones, fat pieces, uneaten meat, etc. Now we don’t feed animals human food and that phrase is no longer PC.

I am from El Sobrante, I am a leftover.

George Carlin (again)- Leftovers make you feel good twice- once for being frugal, then again when you throw them away for being neat.

Reminds me of the times when we bought “used” things, now it’s all “pre-owned”

George Carlin (again)- Leftovers make you feel good twice, once for being frugal, then when they go bad, for being clean.

I call them “remains.”

Potato soufflé? I choose to call that “never eaten”.

The revenge of the ever offended. Oh the pain.

I agree with RAT! This era is all about agendas of those who protest about their personal hang ups….get a life!

Anyone else notice that more & more Rat is becoming the voice of reason?

I prefer to think of leftovers as previously prepared foods.

Yeah, “pre-eaten” doesn’t exactly work, does it? ;D

The potato soufle has already gone bad.

Pastis be one WEIRD boy.

Poorly stated but, definitely true.

NO COMMENT!

Preeatens has WAY more negative connotations. And sometimes leftovers are much better than they were the first time around. Sitting there the flavors have more time to develop and improve. Of course you don’t want them to sit too long. And not all leftovers improve with age.

I prefer “encore presentation” when I serve it the second time.

yes, i was going to say that “pre-eaten” is poop!

Political correctness can be such a burden.

SOmething in today strip is really sad.

Like pre-owned cars

The souffle was leftover for being too salty.

Just eat the darned protesters and eliminate them!

If the food in the fridge is sentient enough to protest, then it’s been in the fridge way too long and needs to be chucked out

At my house “ Don’t throw it out, Dad will eat it……..Eventually !

I was thinking "pre served food might be more accurate or maybe pre prepared, but then neither would make the gag any better…

I learned to eat it next day for breakfast..otherwise it’d be on it’s way to being pre-penicillin.
