Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for September 01, 2024

Maybe it’s my microplastics talking but… what’s the problem with eating it?

No worrying about eating yourself anymore, right Marigold?

New comics – Yay!

That apple won’t keep the doctor away!

Remember bowls of wax fruit?

Will it bounce?

Let’s hope the fruit in today’s Dark Side of the Horse isn’t plastic or wax.

Lotsa microplastic in one’s diet now, anyway, so go ahead — bon appetit!

It just doesn’t pay to fret about problems.

It looks more like a bell pepper to me.

…so, uh, you gonna eat that, Phoebe?

Many apple packers apply a food grade wax on apples to keep them fresh.

Explains why it was so shiny.

Does this mean she can’t eat any food in her own image? Cancel the cake.

Marigold’s supposed predicament sounds a lot more like a dilemma than a conundrum to me.

Plastic doesn’t matter, is it sparkly?

Green apple or green bell pepper?
