Grand Avenue by Mike Thompson for September 30, 2022

It’s a legitimate question. Some countries eat everything with their fingers.

Maybe he shouldn’t eat with his grandma.

Shouldn’t it be, “Put food, not foot, in mouth”?

I dislike eating with my fingers. Always have. As a little girl, I wouldn’t eat a chicken leg because I didn’t want a greasy hand and fingers, so my mother wrapped the slender end with a paper napkin. I’ve done better as an adult but I still dislike drippy fingers.

And for cuisines like Ethiopian where it’s a communal dish and everyone eats with their hands, oh boy, I just can’t. I go full Sheldon. : (

I’m not sure the punishment fits the crime here.

Gez! Loosen up you old bat! Can’t other people do the sly sarcastic expression besides your old face?

Put food in mouth, not food in foot?
