Chazz (or Paul) is conflating tofu and plant-based meat, though. Asians have been eating tofu for 2000 years, long before the veggie patty.

A mutation, maybe. Like four-leaf clovers, or cats with more than 18 toes.

@gammaguy: “I have never experienced bitterness from brussels sprouts, and my experience goes back decades before the 1990s.”
Also @gammaguy: “And it’s been known for decades (at least!) that the chemical phenylthiocarbamide is absolutely tasteless for some people but extremely bitter for others.”

Brussels sprouts changed in the 1990s, when Dutch breeders eliminated most of the bitterness from the commercial varieties.

The only family member even a little on top of their game is Jason. Roger, Andy, Paige and Peter are usually wrongfooted in their endeavors whenever the strip focuses on them. Roger’s lost at work and is bad at chess and golf. Andy cooks food that the rest of the family doesn’t want to eat, and her career has been thoroughly sidelined. Paige is a shallow imbecile, and Peter’s terrible at sports. Because generally speaking, foibles are funny. Jason’s the only one with exceptional skills, but he usually misses the forest for the trees.
Dollars to doughnuts, guys whining about wokeness are the same guys who ruthlessly mock people uncomfortable with misogynistic and racist stereotypes in ’50s cartoons. Quick to dish it out, never willing to take it.

In the high school I went to, you had to sign up for the next year’s classes towards the end of your freshman, sophomore and junior years. So you’d know which teachers you’d have the next year, and for the English classes there were summer reading assignments.

I had assigned summer reading in high school, in California in the 90s, which would probably be more or less contemporaneous with these strips.

What I don’t get is, why do people who don’t get comics gravitate to comic strips? While this guy is probably politically triggered, I feel like nearly every comic I read on GoComics is filled with comments like “Since when are there wild rhinos in the US,” “Dogs can’t drive cars,” or something else completely missing the point of the joke. “What if Poncho isn’t lying to Chazz, and he’s just trying to be helpful?” Then the comic wouldn’t be funny. Which, fine, not everyone has to get jokes. But I feel like if I was one of those people then I wouldn’t keep reading comics.

Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship of the Ring) reference. “Fool of a Took!” But Poncho has Chazz’s last name, which is Palmer.
Normal tofu is about as processed as common cheese, or alcoholic drinks.
