Lots of restaurants are experimenting with portions these days. One (that we used to frequent) got “new” smaller dishes. Smaller salads, Burl’s half-order soup, and while the steak was the same size, the cow had run from the ranch to the slaughter house, saving the cost of a truck.
Purple…. me too.So I found it….February 16th of this year.

Slightly different coloration…though I think all strips are sent out in BW to the colorists before each publication, rather than being kept on file in color.
Different Find-It, as well… and that makes me think Julie is still working on the strip….unless they’ve been re-run so many times, GoComics already has multiple versions to choose from.
Anything else?
BTW I posted the old strip as a link….click it if you want to re-read the February comments too.
It’s probably “all you can eat” soup so it won’t be full. Burl just can’t wait for the second bowel. (greed I suppose )It takes a lot of MSG in the food to taste it I would think. Most places don’t have it anyway so why complain about it?

The people at the back table appear to have… um…expired.. I suppose that’s to be expected, if they’ve been sitting there since February.
