Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for October 25, 2020

Sounds like an old person’s complaint.

Like ketchup: takes a while for the stuff to come out of the bottle when shaken and pounded until it all comes out at once.

Put a Tum in there. It helps.

I really only got that when I was taking CoQ-10. I suppose it’s more of a problem for people who take the vitamins in gummy form.

Look like Luann needs to go back to the Flintstones Chewable Vitamins.

Is Luann eating two big chocolate chip cookies for breakfast? I envy her.

I always hate it when the bottle gets constipated.

I’ll still take it over the old multivitamins when I was a kid that tasted straight-up like dirt. I know medicines getting sweet flavorings is a luxury, but I don’t understand how those caplets used to sell with having 10% bitterness and 90% sand as the flavor profile…

Your point?

Geez – And I thought Luann & Puddles were boring…

Why I take pills or liquid since being an old fart I had to take a lot.

Luann takes a vitamin. One lousy vitamin. I think I have a miniature pharmacy.

Normally those vitamin jars have little packets of silica gel to absorb the water. Anyhow I agree with the Duck above about the Flintstone Chewables, they never stuck together as well as One a Day and Centrum.

Check the label.

Brown and large.

I think Luann may have prostrated herself.

I have a vitamin supplement like that. I’ve learnt to store the bottle upside down and then it’s easy to get at the blob and remove one.

Uh, Lu? Check the expiration date on that bottle of vitamins, BEFORE consumption. And since they’ve all touched your hand, chew them ALL. Or chew one, and chuck the rest. COVID protocols don’t ‘cha know.

And what’s this? Avocado Toast again? What happen to all those yummy, crispy pancakes Ms Bernice used to fix for breakfast?? I say, you had better meddle in Bern’s business forthwith, and get to the bottom as to WHERE she’s been sneakin’ around with. (Jack) and with “Who.” (Jack,Jack). – [Sorry, friends. Been practicing Morse Code] ;)

And get your pop to help expose her little ‘secret’ and burn Bern’s “little playhouse” down. He’d BETTER if he ever wants to enjoy those artery clogging flapjacks again. Only THIS time, with BACON!

PS: And I’d CHARGE Benjamin for this “service” if “I” were You.

Gitcher months’ worth in a single swallow.

It’s a problem that probably no one will be able to solve. At least that wasn’t the case of a sauce. For this time.

Go down to Home Depot and have ’em run the bottle through the paint can shaker.

Yeah, they stick together. In unity there is strength.

And their color-coating rubs off on your fingers.

Still worth it, Luann. Just “shake before opening”!

They look like gummy bears, but they’re not.

Or, do what I do, with the lid on, shake the jar until they come loose, then pour 1 into your hand.Vit D3 and Vit E caps always stick together

I just tap the container on the counter and the pills separate.

I was saying pretty much the same thing about my gummie vitamins yesterday. But way easier to take than another pill.

Little bit fewer vegan meals and maybe you won’t need the vitamins in the first place luann.

Who reads a newspaper?

Vitamins? I’d suspect that maybe Dez had gotten Luann on a healthier diet. But, commercial vitamins, and, what looks to be bagels from a commercial bakery wouldn’t be what Dez would “prescribe” for a healthy breakfast. (I’d suggest that maybe those vitamins were something else that a young woman might take daily. But as far as I know the product I’m thinking of, doesn’t come in a jar, doesn’t stick to gether, probably wouldn’t want to take them in front of Frank, and, unless she just being prepared, doesn’t need them, because Luann hasn’t come close to needing to prevent unintended consequences from certain activities.)

You can always go back to giant pills that must be swallowed…

Now is this the pill that makes her larger or smaller?

I’ve shook the bottle first, to loosen the capsules.

OK, what happened to Ben? As usual, Greg Evans changes arcs without any conclusion. That always ticks me off.

You’re supposed to keep ‘em in the fridge. Says somebody.

My capsule vitamins have those little pillows that attract moisture. Helps keep the gel capsules from sticking together! And I save them in a jar in case my phone gets wet. Saw you can use them to dry out the phone. Haven’t needed to try to though. Thankfully. ;-)

open the ketchup, stick a bread knife in there and swirl it around a couple of times. remove the knife wipe as much on the item you want ketchup on and then if need pour more. It allows air to enter the mix. NOW if you shake it up the air bubble you created breaks down and distributes throughout, making it easier to pour.

Shake and shake a ketchup bottleNone will come and then a lot’ll.

“Sticky Business”

“Globs of Fun”

“Thock It To Me”

“Coming-Out Party”

“What’s Shakin’?”

Before the days of plastic ketchup “bottles” we said, pound and pound the ketchup bottle, none will come and then a lott’l.

D3, I am looking at YOU!

An iced teaspoon always works for me.

I am with Luann on this one. I take omega-3 every day and those things clump together like nobody’s business.

If you are over 18 and still taking “Gummy Vitamins”, it’s time to grow up.

Bad move on Luann part. Those Chocolate chip cookies look good.

So, next Sunday, continuing in this direction, Frank struggles to open his pill bottle. Can’t get the cap off. Starts cussing. Luann comes by and opens it in 2 seconds. Frank fumes. The “Ha Ha silly Dad” type of Sunday strip. Or has this already been done?

It’s interesting that this ‘toon appears in the collection of strips classified by GoComics as ’Popular’, but, on the ‘A through Z’ collection of all strips, the one from October 24 is featured.

Whose bright idea was to make a vitamin supplement in a gummi like candy? Medicine should never look like candy. Yes, it is possible to overdose on some vitamins.

I’ve never been able to get the glob to be small enough to come out in a clump like that.

How long has that bottle been cluttering up the cabinet for the pills to get sticky?

Next Sunday, Puddles napping.

yawns to get paid for that. Wow.

the trick is when first opened… put in a teaspoon of corn starch.. it will act as a release agent and prevent them from sticking together.

When’s the last time you sat over a print newspaper with a cup of coffee?

Vitamins may be expensive but at least there’s no proof that they work.
