Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 24, 2023

What, is that a candy that Nate’s dad would give out?

Strip rating: 8/10 Okay, the joke here was actually pretty funny, but not funny enough to make me crack up, but still. We’re getting somewhere, guys!

I mean, I’m not a fan of lollipops in general so….

Anything with coconut is also to be avoided. (Just ask Charlie Brown and Snoopy!)

Sour Apple Dum Dums may be a zero, but the name of that candy reaches 10 in the humor scale. lol

This joke feels a little weird (like, Francis and Teddy seemingly reacting by talking to us) but it’s decent, I love how they all treat it as fact (I’ve never had most american candy so I can’t give my opinion)

7\10!

Definitely saving this to use the last panel as a reaction image

I won’t try those. Also I think Daphne might be in this arc. (Look at panel 1)

His own father gives healthy treats. What rating does that get?

Look – just hand me all your chocolates and of course, NO CANDY CORN!!

And I hope Lincoln celebrated a great 60th Birthday, yesterday!!

I thought it was apples and raisins.

I live in England, so I’m almost completely unfamiliar with American chocolate bars. My favourite chocolate bars here in the UK are Wispa, Wispa Gold and Toffee Crisp.

Idk, we should continue this.

They’re called dum dums because whoever eats one is a dum dum lol

I’m a sucker for lollipops. I don’t see a problem with Dum Dums.

Candy corn or Necco wafers. They’re so nasty they move the needle into the negative side of the meter.

I would think that Nate’s house would rate a zero

I would be fine with the sour apple dum dum, but anything banana flavored dips below zero on my rating scale.

No one cares about Lincoln Peirce’s candy preferences.

ahem

Allow me to quote Sody Pop from Chikn Nuggit.

“SOUR APPLE OR DIE!!!!!”

Circus peanuts ? those brown hard things in the black or orange wrappers ?

Only in Florida are Dum Dums #1.

First of all totally my opinion sour apple dum dums do suck sour to me in a lollipop is bad and why isint healthy candy in last ? This arc sounds fun but Halloween is on Tuesday and this arc will end on Saturday which means the only stuff we will see is a candy arc which is fine but is a little boring unless dalphine comes or there is some actual drama this arc will prob be a 5/10 but it can be better depending on what happens but todays strip is a 5/10 and also the reactions at the last panel is a first for 2023

what are talking about nate sour apple dum dums are great also I hope we see more of Daphne

What? I didn’t even know those were a thing.

Maybe for good reason.

I HATE GREEN APPLE FLAVORED CANDY SO MUCH

green apple flavored candies are good

8/10, I have not tasted Sour Apple Dum Dums. Good joke, though! Poll: What is your favorite Dum Dum flavor? Mine is Mystery.

Another zero. Nate’s house. His dad always gives out yucky healthy treats.

sour apple is the best flavor. I won’t be taking this slander!

i want them to get to the trick or treating. the joke is meh and the execution is meh 2/5

Is that what Nate’s Dad hands out?

Anything “sour apple” turns me off. Dum Dums are just trying to be Tootsie Pops and failing badly. Long live Cherry!

I have 2 containers of candy (this year going to 3 tiers/containers). One with the good candy, and one with the cheap/awful candy. I do admit to putting the Dum Dum suckers along with the peppermint wheels and butterscotch candies into the cheap bowl (and sometimes Smarties get in that bowl.) The bad bowl is for the no costume kids, and the kids who are far too old to be out trick or treating (and they usually are in both categories.) This year, thanks to Costco, I got about 80 full sized candy bars and some Pokemon cards that can be picked through by the kids in good costumes.

What about your dad, Nate? Wouldn’t you count your own house?

I like sour apple candies. Semi-soft candies like Bit-o-Honey, that stick to teeth (and fillings) are my zeros.

Beggars can’t be choosers, right?

Those orange and black wrapped peanut butter nuggets, Yuck

….Nate’s house isn’t even on the scale…….Marty’s surprises….ain’t exactly candy……

HA! I did read about that, once. In a book called, Sour apples for dummies

I love the sour apple flavor! How DARE HE SLANDER THE SOUR APPLE FLAVOR!

Overall Rating: 0/10 jk jk…Overall Rating:7/10(also i have social medias for my new comic,feel free to check it out (its free mods))

the links are in my bio on my profile page and wont be there for long(cuz the mods) (sorry mods plz dont ban i will get rid of it soon!)

Oh wow guys he has an opinion on candy

First Jolly Rancher slander, now Sour Apple slander. What is his issue?

What is a Sour Apple Dum Dum? I’ve never heard of a Dum Dum in my life.

why peirce be dissing sour apple dum dums and jolly ranchers

on this acount all i do is randomly comment

They are not chocolate, granted but there are some of us that really do like sour apple candy….

What about smarties

Candy Corn = 0

Sour apple dum dums are like, my favorite candy

What are yalls favorite candy? Mines is m&m’s

Um… Circus Peanuts? Necco Wafers?

Is there a house that only gives out Sour Apple Dum Dums?

Considering the health-food “goodies” his dad concocts, I’m surprised he didn’t mention his own house.

No, no! NATE’s house would be zero. His Dad gives out prunes, soy snacks, etc.

they dont even actually taste like sour apple

?what?
