Peanuts by Charles Schulz for July 23, 2023

The song “Junk Food Junkie” went to #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976, same year as this comic. Junk food had become a hot topic around then.

Captain? More like commander!

small world small camp?

I hope the parents know what that means.

The bigger question here, of course, is who was dumb enough to put Peppermint Patty in charge of ANYTHING.

When I was at sleepaway camp, my folks sent me Nestle’s Quik, and those little boxes of cereal from Kellogg’s.

I wouldn’t add in P.S.J.F. anyway.

Sally is quite the junk food junkie.

Hello Mudder! Hello Fadder! Here I am! At Camp Granada!

Obviously. Duh?

G.I.s in any camp like “junk food” from home.

sure hope they understand what that means or they’ll be just as confused as Patty.

Red and Rover has a nice Snoopy crossover.

Send some to Daphne of “Big Nate!” She’s headed to Summer Camp, too. (Hope she doesn’t meet ol’ “Shut up and Leave Me Alone!!”

Which WOULD be hilarious!

Sally knows what those letters are for.

Amen.

Tent shun, this is your Tent Captain speaking…

I remember it well. Senior in college at that time.

Pretzels and veggie chips are a DELICIOUS, HEALTHIER alternative to potato chips and candy FYI . . . although I AM 35, so maybe my adult tastes are showing with the veggie chips? (I DO love candy too much though.)

Sally’s at this camp too?
