Agnes by Tony Cochran for November 02, 2022

so it is used as an ornament for Christmas?

This reminds me: I haven’t had a fried baloney sandwich in decades. Now where did I put that shopping list?

(♫ My baloney has a first name. It’s O-S-C-A-R. . . . ♫)

Agnes lives in a world where people like her parents mysteriously disappear and bioengineered garlic bologna simulations are a thing. I wonder if Ted ever worked for the Soylent Corporation.

Real bologna is unhealthy enough. That stuff must be toxic!!

this is like a scene from yet another really awful (but hilarious) charlie sheen movie…

If it is not made from animals it ain’t meat. Still, the non-meat eaters strive to make their soybean creations look like cuts of meat. They must really be craving the real thing.

I can feel my cholesterol going through the roof

I know someone who at one time had 31 pounds of bioengineered garlic bologna simulation, and it was in the shape of a snake.

I enjoy a few different vegetarian products (sausage patties, different kinds of veggie burgers). But something tells me that this particular item out of Agnes’ universe is one that I’d prefer to avoid consuming.

Alle we know isn’t enough to evaluate it.
