Drabble by Kevin Fagan for September 07, 2024

Ralph: Honeybunch, even I know you shouldn’t eat all those snacks. I’ll get the medicine, while you relax.

It’s not what you eat, it’s how much you eat. I’m down to one bowl each of ramen and cereal and two sandwiches per day.

OINK.

Moderation.

Junk food distraction!

Because that’s not comfort food, Fagan is using the term improperly. Comfort food is something that makes you feel well, mostly tied to past experiences. For example, comfort food for me would be my father’s tomato bread, or the coffee and milk at the beach in early morning that reminds me of my grandfather.

It’s the combination!

Too much of a good thing……

Looks like she’s confused junk food with comfort food.

It’s ultra processed food, the worst food you can put in your body

“why do they call it “comfort food” " ? That one’s easy. Cause after binging, you need someone to say “Poor baby” as you nurse that tummyache.

They should be called “comfart foods”, ‘cause here come the farts.

You’re doing it wrong…

This seems more like a Ralph or Norman gag. She’s picking up their bad habits!

They’re very comforting…provided you don’t overdo them.

That’s not what I call comfort food.

She misses the point. The comfort is for the people she offends. She doesn’t need comfort, she is the source of the grief.
