Transcript:
Poncho: Tofu is what? Chazz: Soybeans. They press the soybeans into a meat-like shape and give it artificial meat flavoring. Poncho: Ya gotta be kidding. That is without a doubt the most inane, moronic and duplicitous thing I've ever heard. Chass: Nevertheless. Hey, this doesn't have anything to do with the veggie burgers I left on the barbecue, does it?

This is in the present, all the Sunday strips are in the present day, and the dailies are during Poncho’s first year of life.

I love eating just about anything…foie gras, frog’s legs, etc. Tofu has just never been something I crave. I will eat it if it is served to me, but I always think…what’s the point?

Poncho’s not running away to puke, he’s running away because Chazz just figured out that the veggie burgers have been eaten (tofu or no).

“Poncho only said that tofu is duplicitious because he is trying to throw Chazz off the scent of tofu on his breath.”
That’s not really how I read it.
Poncho ate the burgers, knowing they were tofu but thinking tofu was meat. He enjoyed them. In speaking to Chazz, he learns that tofu is actually vegetable matter. He is appalled, he feels cheated and betrayed. However, in asking something like “What kind of animal is tofu made from?” (I imagine that’s how the subject came up), Poncho didn’t realize that Chazz would make the connection between the question and the burgers on the barbecue (Poncho has always had a very low opinion of Chazz’s deductive reasoning abilities).

Running won’t help, Poncho. You have to face it at some point. Probably around dinner time!

I think Poncho HATED the burgers, and wanted to know why they were so bad. He knew they were tofu to start with. But he can speak as he does but not know about tofu? That’s questionable.

Fried tofu is good in Chinese food, with the right sauce.
