Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for November 11, 2019

where are you going to sell your concoction, Mrs. Otterloop, Costco?

Breakfast, lunch and supper of losers.

It’s called gruel. Oliver Twist and Ebenezer Scrooge seemed to like it.

“Could I have more, Mom?”

John Harvey Kellogg orginally meant for cornflakes to be like this. Then his brother insisted they mixed some sugar into it to make it sell better.

To be marketed in the future as “Bachelor Chow”.

I have always thought there should be “People Chow”, which could be sent to disaster areas, etc. to keep people alive until real help and stability are in place.

The rest of the story? Well, they eventually sold the company for billions and retired to a secluded private island in the Pacific, thus avoiding the scandal that erupted when the FDA declared the cereal to be nutrition-free.

We ate everything. Plates clean. Still can’t understand people/kids leaving food after it’s prepared for them.

I think it’s called Soylent Green but don’t tell Petey what’s in it.

I love the third panel with Petey’s picture on the bage declaring “Now with less flavor”.

I was a picky eater,just not on Petey’s level.This one made me laugh ;)

They already have “People Chow” it’s called K-rations. Lived on them in the USMC!

I love Mrs. Otterloop!!! I would “like” this strip 10 times if I could.

Oatmeal flavored ramen noodles.

I’d suggest using Malt-o-Meal as a starting point for this new food for Petey. There is not a lot of flavor and if you stick it in a blender before you cook it, and then add enough water to it that it is almost liquid, it will be without texture.

Popular idea; Futurama already sells Bachelor Chow…

Madeline, I love that slightly sadistic “one raisin” touch! Petey Chow is sure to be a hit among Picky Eaters everywhere!

Down Petey. Down. Good Boy. Arf!

She’s just described the old version of MRE’s.
