Frazz by Jef Mallett for December 19, 2024

As a child I liked stuffed green bell peppers. But I didn’t eat the pepper. Now I’ll eat what ever is cooked!

Didn’t Calvin’s mother tell him they were stewed monkey brains? I wonder how that would work with real kids?

Sickest I’ve ever been from restaurant food was a LONG time ago in Albuquerque when I ordered a chile relleno and was served a bell pepper stuffed with mexican style dirty rice, all smothered with straight-out-of-the-can tomato soup. I never did like stuffed peppers (though I love chiles rellenos) and that just made it final. I’ve never eaten another.

DOODLY – SQUAT?

You can have your peppers, thank you.

What you can eat can be used against you in mom’s court.

Mom is the judge of what can and will be eaten in her kitchen.

A well-made stuffed pepper is a delight and I’ll hear no further slander! #harumph

But what are they stuffed with?

Strange, I dislike stuffed pepper, but like chile Rellenos.

If it weren’t for CWD there would be plenty of Doodleys to go around

I think i prefer the term, diddly ! :-)

I hate bell pepper, especially the green ones

People who aren’t good at hunting are called “Vegans”.

I believe I would have used the word DIDDLY instead of DOODLY but still. A GREAT KOMIK

Her mom is not wrong. But being a prosperous civilization does give us a lot of choice about what we eat. I just ate some almonds and they are not native to anyplace near me.

Mom is correct.

When my mother quit hr job to go back to school we started eating stuffed peppers. We also had pancakes for dinner occasionally. I rather liked them both. Lima beans, however, were a matter.
