Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 29, 2012

it’s amazing what foods you can get on a stick at the minnesota state fair

Mmmm,…. Batter dipped, Deep Fried, French Fries. Yeah, I will stop frying my twinkies, too.

Jeff’s gonna beat him senseless then do a 30-mile ride.

That’s a good first step, Pig.

How do you want you sweet tea hon. Fried.

My ex wanted to fry my twinkies, but I got out in time.

Bacon stuffed, bacon wrapped, deep fried bacon.

Yum!

:)

I bet twinkie feed pig would be tender.

…and before Hostess declares Chapter 11.

I heard of a couple of guys raising a pig. They fed it a lot of expired twinkies and fruit pies. the pig stroked out before they could enjoy the bacon! Maybe they should have fed it fresh twinkies.

I also heard twinkies can last years in the package and look as good as the day they were bought!

I’ve always preferred my breakfast Twinkies unfried, Pig. Glad to see you come around to these healthier ways! Don’t let that Jeff bully you into granola!

Is this supposed to be Jeff Mallet, creator of the comic Frazz?

Actually Twinkies dipped in sour cream with chives is the best…………

Jeff, you forgot to add the blood doping.

Before going whole hog with the health stuff, it’s best to start with little things.

Personally if you want junk food, go to the NC State Fair and get the hamburger between two haves of a Krispy Kreme donut instead of a bun, then go eat a deep fried candy bar.

Now that’s my idea of a fitness regimen! :) (Pig’s idea, that is.)

Does Stephan smoke around Jeff?

ailurophile17, on your post yesterday. Gad, it’s good to read that I’m not the only one who does not understand all the fuss over Cul de Sac………when I hear the word ‘genius’ connected to this strip and the awards…..I just don’t understand….maybe it’s because I’m an old guy too.you folks who think Cul De Sac is the greatest thing since sliced bread, fine- think that way and have a nice day.

‘Like I said, this seems about right for Jeff’s caliber of people. “Whatever make me feel superior,”’Agreed. On the other hand, Americans are increasingly obese, particularly in the South. Looking at the stats, I’d even say ridiculously obese.

SNERK

Actually, Jeff will probably go out for a 20 mile run and collapse with a heart attack a mile out.

Too bad because fried twinkies are so good.

Most granola is actually pretty bad for you (store bought). It’s full of bad fats. Most granola munchers just munch it for the image, not the substance.

I didn’t say they were edible they jus looked that way.

Awwwwwwwww!

LOL xxx

Who can ya trust if not your Trusted Mechanic for the straight facts?

Love the extremes…health nazi in spandex, chuckle-headed good-timer enjoying HIS…

Mmmm. Deep-fried Twinkies …

I stopped frying my twinkies because it hurt too much.

Jeff might as well have spoken in pig-latin.

and this is why we all love PIG! Soft spoken, soft hearted, and softer brain.

Glad to see that Steve is thinking about his health!

I would have a fitness regimen, but I’m to busy to maintain one. So mostly I just eat whatever the hell I want and run a lot. I’m not a biker, but I’ve been a distance runner for six years and the mentalities are similar. Greatest perk about working out like that: we can eat whatever we want and not gain wait. Which is nice. And the endorphins are pretty fantastic too.

No bike lanes where I live either. The few there are intown are full of sand and garbage. Just be nice and share the road.

God that sounds utterly distugusting!!! It must be absolutely horrid for your body!

Good job Pig

The pro cyclists I know eat pasta and other carbs by the TON ..
