Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 29, 2014

If Pastis had trouble making up to Jim Davis, wait until he confronts the McDonalds Corp!

How about the McUFO (Unidentified Frying Object)?

Mickey Dee’s also has salads and chicken burgers. Aren’t those healthy?

The only meat McDonalds has is in its fries — then we found out that’s fake too…..So, why don’t you name yourself Master Soy, Rat?

Maccas new dish … ratburger!!

Rat: “Fine. Then I’ll take these ideas to Burger King. They can give them Canadian accents and air them as French McDonald’s.”

wait how does saturated fat clog your veins?

Want Zebra burgers for Crocs and want now ! What kind of fry go good with Zebra burger ? Do not forget swamp shake !

Rat looked more like a lemon than a molecule; but then he would be too tart to…never mind.

@danfromfreddybeachThat’s the same for any salad not just McD’s.

Ha! McDonald’s, can’t handle, the truth!

Only one question. Why wasn’t rat thrown out sooner?

but if you just eat salad?

makes me a cow?

Having worked for a company that takes car of McD tech, I can honestly say……there is no such thing as healthy or fresh food at McDonald’s. Everything comes in frozen, but not flash-frozen to maintain freshness. more like cryo frozen, which isn’t good for anything.

Is Satch related to Bippy (the round smiley character that Pastis brought in for a couple of strips a few years ago)?

Take Rat out back and work him over a bit, Security Guys! Just be sure the security cameras are aimed the other way.…New on tomorrow’s menu: McRatburgers!

I would be happy if their commercials had fat people and stop showing happy fit people that I’ve never seen when I go inside to get my sad meal.

I miss the fuzzy cat. Who did he belong to, again?

How about Mc Sponsible for every known disease linked to eating over processed foods. Or Mc Eat-Ur-Heart-Out…literally. Oh I know, how about Mc Death.

Personally, “Satch” makes me think of Satchel from “Get Fuzzy”. Come to think of it, some new crossovers of those two strips would be interesting …

Saturated fat is good! Let’s get current with the research Pastis.

Another truly great strip! Thanks, Stephan!

How about McFurry (Rat as himself with a McFlurry hat)?

As Krusty said about his Ribwich meat … Think smaller, hairier, and with a lot more legs !!…

You people having a conversation about saturatad fat and salads and veins, pleaes STOP RIGHT NOW. This is a comic strip, if you can’t be sarcastic or funny, what’s the point?

This is basically Mcdonald’s in three panels.

hydrogenated fats, triglycerides, worse than natural fats.

Just do lots of walking, you’ll be fine.
