FoxTrot by Bill Amend for July 09, 2023

Should use pretzels for the arms and noses. Then they’re edible.

I haven’t had a sno-cone in… decades. I doubt I’ll ever have another. But I wouldn’t mind having one if it appeared over my horizon… raspberry flavor please, or maybe lemon, in a pinch.

Diabetes in a cone

Today’s classic FoxTrot Sunday strip:

The “Jason Fox Snow-Cone Machine™” is a lot more fun than the “Snoopy Snow-Cone Machine™.”

Playing with your food is sometimes at least half the fun of (eating) it.

Umm… What’s the blue syrup gonna be?

I wonder what they made the eyes out of.

Don’t forget to take out the toothpicks!

Frosty was pretty accepting of his own demise though, all things considered.

I think snow cones got replaced with slurpees

I haven’t had a sno-cone since I was a kid.

NOw I want to try that

I live in south Texas where we’ve had triple-digits heat for most of the past month. There are snow cone (raspa) stands everywhere.

Is the sno-cone maker a hand crank?

I just like the ice.

Very clever and funny, I didn’t expect the kicker!…

But do you know?

And the kid on the left likes …plain ice?

Finished my third time reading through foxtrot.

And now a Frank Zappa song suite is running through my head. Something about an Eskimo named Nanook and the unfortunate affliction to one’s eyes.
