Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 03, 2020

That’s what you get for letting your guard down.

Knowing Calvin’s luck, the pizza will also attack him.

if a pizza, Calvin, it’s going to have the toppings which you loathe

Calvin’s parents should do that…but not let Calvin have any. What? Calvin didn’t say anything about him getting a slice.

Where can I find that recipe? I have guests coming over.

His delusions are getting stronger and more real. Time to up his anti-psychotic meds!!

Any Toad Stroganoff that’s worth eating is worth fighting.

Mmmmmmm. Toad stroganoff. Mmmmmm.

You can’t be be serious! Toad stroganoff sounds much more appetizing!

A slight variation of that happens often to me. One just has to live with picky eaters. My parents learned to. And for many years now, so has my wife.

Hey I just read and commented on Garfied before reading this, great minds……..

I love that everything he hates is shown as a green glop. :P

That toad’s sure has beef with Calvin.

Watterson did not know it at the time, but this was the inspiration to the Pie Face Game.

Looks like Calvin’s food isn’t agreeing with him.

I love it when Calvin has fights with his spinach!

Here is the south Appalachian Mountains, we enjoy some unusual foods. Never had toad stroganoff though. Here is one we do enjoy:

Real Southern Fried Brain(Chick Tales – The truth, the half-truth, and nothing like the truth)NOTE: This document may not be suitable for young ears, or the faint of heart.I was discussing with my friend the other day about our Southern delicacies. We talked about Real Southern Sweet Tea, fried chicken, eating at Southern buffets, and other mouthwatering things. As y’all know, I have researched the origins of these things, and written about them just for your gastrocomical pleasure. My friend reminded me of one that has become more popular in these here latter days. It’s called Southern Fried Brain, also more commonly called “brain-mash”. Now, I know you’ll want to know more about this delectable treat, and how a Real Southern Man prepares it.Some of y’all have probably never heard of it, but it is really an old Southern delicacy, closely related to Roadkill Casserole. …………….

(There is more to this than will fit here, but you get the idea.)

Toad the Wet Sprocket Stroganoff, more like…

Looks like the vile glop knows something Calvin doesn’t realize…

It is not right-handed.

Next time, don’t give him a spoon and the toad stroganoff won’t have a weapon.

Calvin’s mom shouldn’t cook the sentient veggies!

I tried calling for a pizza, but it must not have heard me, since it never came.

LOL! Just when Calvin thought he had finally defeated the green glob monster!

For years my kids refused to eat “green junk.”

He got in a food fight with himself, and, as would be inevitable, lost.

Nice hair Calvin.

Toad Stroganoff, eh? So you eat the noodles and leave the toad meat – what’s the big deal?

Calvin needs an outlet for his creativity.

I fought the glawp and the glawp won.

I thought Calvin would just LOVE something like toad stroganoff or brain mash.

I think Mom used to make that stuff!

My kid brother’s favorite lunch was a from-a-box beef Stroganoff. On his birthday, he asked for green beef Stroganoff. As a loving older sister, I complied by dumping half a bottle of green food coloring in to the final product. He was thrilled.

Check out that 80’s checkerboard blouse…I miss those bold patterns…

Some people read the comics, some read the comments.

Food fight solitaire.

Mom’s facial expressions are the best. That last panel kills it.

It doesn’t work, Calvin. Mom DOES blame you.

When I was in grade school they served coleslaw in the cafeteria that could do that.

I like it! Food – 1, Calvin – Hysterical!

Must be tough having a neurotic kid.

That’s totally what I did when I was younger

A real food fight, it fights back.

For me it was the eggplant casserole.

We grew WAY too many Italian eggplants!

It’s not a food fight, it’s more of a lightsaber battle.
