Jon: Oops. I just bought 3,200 pecan logs
Garfield: How'd you know what I wanted?!
Just give me a hint, folks: what are pecan logs? Sometimes it is hard to get the point in Garfield comics for a foreigner …
Is it some kind of this? (“fluffy, cherry-laced nougat wrapped in fresh caramel and pecans.” - citing from Wikipedia)
Goneaway - searching ‘Pecan Log’ with Google Images usually helps. I didn’t have much of a clue either (I’m British), but now I’m just hungry! Perhaps we can all just gate-crash Jon’s front porch and wait for the delivery…
Oh my, pecan logs. I’ll never forget the first time I had one of those. My mom got one in the mail from someone and when us kids got home from school she started slicing it up. I don’t think I ever tasted anything so delicious. I’ve loved them ever since. Now I’m craving one!

If it’s not too late maybe you can delete the order.

Resell them for a dollar a piece more , Jon, You’re probably not the only stupid out there.

Oh Jon, how did you know that’s what Liz wanted? Easy as pie.
sjoujke about 15 years ago
Well, Garfield’s a happy camper but I don’t think Liz will feel the same way.

Sign me up for the “what’re pecan logs?” club. But it’s quite obvious they’re a food item, going by Garfield’s delight.
pearlandpeach about 15 years ago
surely pecan logs are not just a southern delight.

XD one of an online shopper’s greatest fears!
…but Isn’t there usually a “proceed to check-out” button after the order is placed?

I think Jon was so busy clicking and talking, he didn’t even notice.

Pecan log roll A pecan log roll is a confectionery popularized by the roadside convenience store, Stuckey’s.
Pecan log rolls are described by the company’s website as “fluffy, cherry-laced nougat wrapped in fresh caramel and pecans.”

I’ve almost done the same thing, if you get to the last screen and click ‘confirm order’ that’s it!

This doesn’t really suspend my disbelief. It seems Mr. Davis doesn’t know much about the internet, or simply abandoned accuracy for this joke.
Picky? Yes, we nerds are picky!

Banana, he invoked comic logic for the sake of the joke.

I take it, Trapper John, that you’ve never encountered Amazon’s notorious One Click Shopping?
pearlandpeach about 15 years ago

AJCA about 15 years ago
I just found out what they are and look really tasty.
I bet if they sold peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the internet, Jon would certainly get those too.
ebeth_jorox about 15 years ago

Assuming he used the first option on Google Shopping, $492,800 well spent.
