Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for July 22, 2023

The come in when you’re sleeping….

He is right about raisins.

Dill is showing his distaste for raisins by his expression — disgusted and tongue out.

I wonder who they think is in charge of hiding the bugs.

This kinda hearkens back to that old, “wadda you gonna do today?”; … “I dunno, wadda you gonna do today?”.

We raise rabbits. No one even blinks at raisins…

Out of the mouths of babes…..lol

Any “health food.”

Dill’s nailed it. Even stopped clocks are right twice a day!

Uh… not all of those black bits on your pizza were olive slices…

Peanut butter. They hide lots of bugs in peanut butter. But don’t worry, they’re roasted right along with the peanuts, therefore they’re sanitary.

Shrimp are bugs.

When I was around 5, I was eating some raisins. My little brother said they were bugs. So I hit him. He hit me back – on the front of my head with his little metal truck. My sister ran screaming to my mother because blood was flowing down my face. I still have the scar from the stitches. That about sums up my relationship with my brother.

Ever try Spotted Dick?

He is so wrong about raisins! Raisin cookies, raisin pie, raisins by the handful, raisins, raisins, raisins.

The bugs crawl in, they don’t crawl out, the bugs cause arm-chewing, yeah, no doubt! ☺

Flax seeds creep me out. They look like fleas!

EW!

I won’t blow their little minds and tell them that some people purposely eat bugs. Cricket tacos are actually quite good.

However, I am with Dill on raisins.

My long-since departed Grandma used to say something similar. But it was thin comfort when I unintentionally swallowed a bug while riding my bike rather fast….

Dill is logical, but the thing is, “they” don’t hide the bugs. You will find and eat them all on your own!
