FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for June 25, 2024

Andy is astoundingly clueless about her awful cooking.

Call CPS kid, that meal constitutes child abuse.

If nothing else, it should encourage the kids to learn cooking for themselves.

Leftovers from dinner.

As they say, “When mom’s on a diet, EVERYONE is on a diet.” Problem is, this is the regular crap she always cooks.

Coulda been worse: Brussels Sprouts.

I continue to be grateful that not only was my mother a very good cook, she hardly ever strayed from the meat/starch/two veg type of menu she learned from Betty Crocker in the 50’s.

Honestly Peter, you don’t know how to order a Pizza with your mom’s credit card ?

Someone really need to call Child Protective Services on that mom.

were there any actual calories in that food? I also know this is rule of funny but in the real world this is a form of abuse, diet obsessed parents forcing growing children and teens to live on a low calorie diet leading to malnutrition and stunted development.

I try to make tasty but healthy dinners, mainly because of my hypertension. I’m the cook, so everyone benefits from it, too.

That sounds disgusting.

Looks like he’s lost a little weight

I’m all for eating healthy, but beet loaf and skim milk? Barf.

Did he actually eat the beetloaf, or convince her it’s breakfast time?

So Funny — LOLOL

There’s awful and then there’s ‘beetloaf’ with that equally appalling ‘glaze’. Shudder…

So putting on a robe entitles you to a better meal?

She could take a few lessons from Betty (see today’s Betty strip) who obviously knows something about sales and marketing.

I’m guessing she didn’t find that beet loaf recipe in her Smarty magazine …
