Garfield by Jim Davis for July 01, 2022

How do they milk chocolate?

They soak and grind almonds in an excess of water

How do they milk butter? (you know, buttermilk!)

face to the table in disbelief indeed, Garfield

So sorry Garfield

It’s almond juice.

Inquiring minds want to know!

First you need to find tiny milking stools . . .

Jon is really one of a kind. At least we hope so.

My reaction was the same as Garfield’s.

What about oat milk? That’s gotta be harder than milking an almond.

Jon, that’s the most NUTTIEST comment, I have ever heard.

Thankfully the almond nut-juice fad has run its course at home. Cricket-butter may catch on soon.

Tiny hands.

Jon, the character who started out as a normal, yet sometimes clueless human being (with weird hobbies), and got more and more braindead over the years. Kind of like Homer Simpson.

Hopefully they won’t milk Jon’s question out for several days.

Jon thinks of things that shouldn’t be thought about!

Just never try to “milk” the male almonds…

This guy is an embarrassment to cat owners.

I’ll tell you when you’re older…

Hmm do almonds moo?

Liz’s face looks like she may be regretting her life choices

Reminds me of the tiktoker who thought strawberry milk came from actual strawberries. The American education system has failed us once again.

“HE DID IT”

(imagines a different version of this dialogue in this cartoon)

WHY JON?! WHY?!

What a great mystery to solve.

Don´t ask about Milk Duds! and where is Magnesia?

Yes it’s true, after 40+ years with Garfield, Jon has lost his mind.

Garfield is uzually super relatable, but, in this case, I don’t understand his reaction at all. Jon asked a totally valid question. I mean, I suppoze it is one you could rezolve with a quick Google search, but it’s still valid.

Many would ask that question just for laughs. Only Jon Arbuckle would take it seriously.

“Dave.. don’t do it Dave..” or a nut asking about another nut. Your choice.

It would be funny if Jon actually cracked an almond open and milk came out of it, Garfield would probably be in shock.

A short article on the environmental effects of various types of milks, including dairy and vegetarian alternatives. Almond growing, unfortunately, takes much more water than for oats and soybeans:

It’s not milk, it’s juice.

Groan. Well, we were warned.

It’s important to keep the pointy end down and then gently stroke it.

Let’s be honest, we all wonder this.

OK, Garfield’s reaction in hilarious. Come to think of it, though, how come a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos is always room temperature?

And yet she stays with him…..

Same way they milk soys and oats, duh… ☺

Garfield knew that Jon was going to ask that question. Let’s just hope that Jon doesn’t start asking the same question about potato milk or even rice milk.

You tug on their tiny little udders, of course!

Come on Liz, how much more proof do you need?

I have thought the same thing.

Is he serious, or is it a “grandpa” joke?!?!

Let’s hope the milkers warm up their hands before they pull on the almonds’s udders!

Oh the shame there Garfield…

udder failure today

Both my brother and sister-in-law have been drinking almond milk, especially the organic type, for awhile now. They tell me that it tastes great and is better than skim milk does. #dairyintake #themoreiknow :)

Hoo boy……….

REKT

ONLY very special people can do it Jon…meaning you are NOT ALLOWED TO BE THERE!

I think that’s not a good direction to make Jon so dumb. He is a lovable loser, but a guy as dumb as you make him sometimes is not lovable.

Whyyyyyy…..

Oh god

Jon isn’t the brightest almond in the jar of mixed nuts!

Anything liquid not taken from an animal by a milking process should not be called milk, mylk or any other spelling.As anything not of the flesh of an animal or bird should not be called meat.
