Andy: Where have you been? Jason: I went over to Marcus' house. he's getting a cold. Andy: So you wanted to be a good friend and help him feel better? Jason: No, no, I was hoping to catch it, so I won't be able to taste that veggie-grain glop you're cooking for dinner. Andy: You know, the idea is I cook this "gloop" to keep you healthy. Jason: Woohoo! I feel a sneeze coming on!

That’s because the bugs won’t eat the junk she cooks! They starve to death. It’s the same principle as sulfa drugs.

Eating healthy food is smart, but Andy HAS to realize that having meat is part of a healthy diet, too.

If you work out and not sit in a chair or couch 14 hours a day, you really don’t have to watch what you eat all that much. Kids ate McDonalds and other junk food all the time 20 years ago like today but they went outside and played! Today, Mothers don’t make their kids go outside and do things. Look at your local ballfield. Bet it is empty most of the time. You used to have to wait to play. It isn’t the food people, it’s the lack of doing anything physical.

Going totally vegan isn’t as healthy as it’s claimed, considering that an actor who had done so and said he felt really healthy, died of a heart attack at 54 years old. All the studies done on food are always refuting previous studies, it’s hard to know what is the actual truth anymore.

Pretty timely that they’re rerunning this strip at the start of cold and flu season. Time to break out the juice and chicken soup.

I think that the idea of a cold is to affect your sinuses so that you can’t SMELL the Glop. It doesn’t really deaden your tongue’s sense of taste, which is only part of the sensation that you ge from food. But smart Jason might know that.
