Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 19, 2018

Tape it to your mouth.

more like the diet’s sticking to Pig

It’s actually the doctor’s recipe for pork belly

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah the pun burns!

My resolution to quit drinking? I’m sticking to it.

Give it a little more time, Pig. It might start working soon.

I guess the doctor found that he was a bit of a porker.

And he will cut his carbs – with a knife and fork.

One of the worst things you can do is yo-yo dieting, which is when you eat things that look like a yo-yo.

Oreo lovers are particular susceptible to this.

But Pig you have only been on the diet for one day …..so one diet at a time :-)

it should be noted…

Try eating the paper. It’ll taste like most diet food and it’s a great source of roughage.

And it’s clearly in front of him, so nobody can say he’s not following it.

Is it Pig, or is it Pastis? Inquiring minds know better than to inquire here.

Reminds of when my Doctor told me to “watch” my carbs.

Check out the Bucket List stapled to my rear end.

if only pig knew……

It’s a real “stick to your ribs” diet.

Oh heck. Just eat all you want and think thin.

He might end up with a tape worm.

Be brave, Pig! Rip it off! You may lose, oh, half an ounce or so….

Ok Pastis, since we haven’t seen the crocs in, oh, I don’t know, forever, apparently you must have lost a law suit over the rights to them. The least you could do is post a link to where we could find them, so we’re not let down every time we click on your comic strip and only find pig, goat and rat.
