Paige: Can I have some money? I hear the ice cream truck. Andy: Didn't Jason tell you? He and I made homework popsicles. They're like orange creamsicles, but we substituted pumpkin puree and unflavored soy yogurt. I wish I could take credit, but the recipe was his idea. Poor guy...you should have seen the look on his face when he remembered he'd be at Marcus's house all day and might not get one himself. Paige: Oh, I can pretty easily imagine the look on his face. Andy: He said to give you his. Isn't that sweet?

I doubt it tastes sweet at all.

Pumpkin puree *is* sweet BTW. I have no idea about that other evil thing. ;)

He had a really cute name for them, too… “Popsickies”.

How is Andi being taken it by this one? She’s usually smarter than this.
Allison Nunn Premium Member over 14 years ago
Andi is being taken in because this is the way she does cook! Me, highly allergic to soy; which is nice in this case!

Andy has a total blind spot when it comes to her cooking. She just doesn’t get it…

Leaving half sucked popsickies for ants is a quick and easy way to add nutritional value to this already popular treat.

You just got PUMPK’ed!
I try to stay away from soy products ever since I hear about the high levels of estrogen and the fact that ancient Tibetan monks used soy as an anti-Viagra device.
With soy being a component in over 80% of all processed foods, its no wonder why men have become total wusses.
Case in point - many burly bikers do you know are vegan tofu eaters…

Her recipe is, as usual, disgusting, but homemade popsicles are pretty good.
Oish - I’ve seen several bikers who look like they could eat vegans. I dunno about the tofu, though. :-P

I live in a small town, the ice cream man usually ignores us for most of the summer. Three years ago, the first time the ice cream man showed up was early October, no lie.

Can this mom really be that clueless?
Rockingwoman over 14 years ago
Yuck! Unflavoured soy yogurt is nasty, and unsweeted pumpkin puree is unpleasant to say the least. Not my idea of a treat! Even vegans like sweet things.

I lived out in the suburbs, where my parents wouldn’t give me money for ice cream trucks. We’ve got a bucket of the stuff, it’s cheaper. But it’s not from a truck.

In the ongoing “what happened to Denise” discussion, I’ll point out that this is the first non-Jasoncentric strip in two months. He really is the lead character in this strip.
