Frazz by Jef Mallett for February 24, 2016
Transcript:
Caulfield: Oranges are super healthy, but nobody pounds them down like potato chips. Frazz: You've been giving this some thought. Caulfield: Maybe that's what makes them healthier. Frazz: You've been giving this some good thought. Caulfield: Maybe if potato chips were a nuisance to peel, they'd be healthy. Frazz: You'd think.

This one doesn’t hold up, the bags are hard enough to open. Faster to unwrap a cutie.

Bananas and apples and grapes are way easier to “open” than potato chips, and way healthier,,,,,
And I “pound down” a LOT more oranges every week than potato chips….Don’t peel ‘em, just cut ’em in half.You can even do that with a little disposable plastic knife, if you carry one in your lunch bag…Sigh… if the schools haven’t banned those yet.

I think I will send in the suggestion to make orange flavored ‘tater chips. I’ll be rich! Rich, I tell you!!Healthy snack food.

Keep on….Wow.Can they still eat with little plastic forks?If they’ve taken all the knives out of the utensils, maybe a kid could still perforate a line all around the orange with one of the forks, and….Wait…. probably they only get spoons. Yikes.
Ewal Doh…. “hate”??So… you get to throw them back when they get even “a little old” … cos you don’t?And then you think you deserve fresh Cuties?Oh, right….excuse me if you were really talking about clementines….

Yeah, like back in the day when you had to make your own instead of buy a bag of chips. I’ve often thought this was true. Same goes for candy, cakes, anything fast food, etc.

No logical connection between Frazz’ statement in panel one and Caulfield’s reply in panel 2. Things don’t become healthier just because you give the matter some thought. (If so, cheeseburgers would be the healthiest thing on the planet.)

Because of real and imagined food allergies, schools are increasingly into banning various fruits and nuts and such. The classic PB&J is becoming contraband. In time, schools will only permit Soylent™ for lunch.
