Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for May 19, 2023

Ouch.

Tastes like chicken.

Better count those fingers.

Manners?

Hate when I bite the inside of my cheek!

How many times a day does Tia Carmen make empanadas?

When you’re eating empanadas, you should be sure to eat only the empanadas.

Only happens to Cruz!

When you bite your fingers, you’re no longer eating empanadas.

Count the empanadas, Baldo. Now there’s one, then there are 2! Nice trick!

Well, there ya go…

Baldo might want to take a few steps back from Cruz.

3 fingers on Cruz and 4 on Baldo’s hand. I know someone who told me an old Hungarian expression, if you bite your tongue it means that you don’t have enough meat in your diet. It would be fun to learn what they would have to say about biting your fingers.

Better ease off for the rest of the day—Do you have any idea how much saturated fat is in one of your fingers?!

“I bit my fingers! And… and I taste delicious!”

it’s either my finger, or tongue..

I would’ve thought Cruz was about to have indigestion

Looks like Cruz bit off one finger on each hand. He’s only got four fingers, while Baldo has five.

You didn’t eat too fast, you moved your fingers too slowly.

“Should the empanadas be eaten with the fingers?” “No, the fingers should be eaten separately!”

(Original version from some commercial which had nothing to do with empanadas.)
