Frazz by Jef Mallett for May 14, 2021

My thing is the difference between corn the day it’s picked and the day after, my parents grew corn and said it’s best if it still has “milk” in it.

I understand that some people lack the gene that allows them to smell asparagus pee.

Turns out that not everybody has the gene that allows them to smell that odor.

Good Asparagus? Pretty Good Asparagus?

Seems like an oxymoron (as far a taste goes) to me.

There are other food-based reactions that get a similar response. Asparagus just happens to be less challenging than some. And, of course, we’ve now lowered the level of philosophy to a more common topic of conversation.

I prefer the smell of pea pee to the smell of asparagus pee.

Let us not even think about discussing fresh red beets.

So the moral of this story is: Never eat a bathroom.

Apparently my body produces the required enzymes. Asparagus doesn’t do that to me.
