Garfield by Jim Davis for March 05, 2024

What will Jon’s sentence be for this?

I’m with Gar on this. Sppppeeeewwwwww!

Just eat that paper!

Actually not all that bad. But oat flour would be better. And low fat margarine wouldn’t work since it’s only there for the fat content!

Agree…..

Ask someone else to bake for you Jon.

Gluten free? Some GF foods aren’t bad. But there’s no reason to add sugar free and low fat into the mix.

Jon’s cooking is always a crime…..

Those are NOT chocolate chip cookies!

Why, Jon, why?

Looks like a busy day for the baking police.

Jon’s cooking has often felt like a crime against humanity.

BTW, anyone excited for The Garfield Movie?

Wonder if Jon is looking for a recipe where he might actually get to eat the cookies instead of Garfield scarfing them all?

Get Alton Brown on the scene. STAT!

It could be tweaked and made semi-decent, but I doubt Jon has actually done his research.

And then find Jon’s recipe supplier…

We tried making a German pancake with almond flour – DON’T.

the FBI (food bureau of investigation) is on it!

Just “ugh”.

I’m with you, Gar!

He’s calling Jon’s mom

Garfield, calling the police about Jon’s cooking is gonna be a moot point, since you can’t actually talk.

(senses a false accusation in this cartoon)

I’ve tried baking with almond flour- everything falls apart.

Oh, jeez… healthy chocolate chip cookies. That deserves a 10-year sentence.

That’s a big smartphone.

with Garfield on this one

Now I’m wondering who would police baking crimes

Garfield does not like healthy cookies or any food that is healthy

I bet there is still sugar in the batter.

Here are my thoughts on what margarine is made of: To quote Jon “I don’t event want to know” (November 27, 1988)

Butter not margarine.

At least it’s not made with carob chips.

I try to replace recipe items with equivalent “healthy” subsitutes whenever possible. Since I have Hypertension, I’m supposed to restrict my intake of sodium, sugar and fat which come in many forms, especially when baking. For example baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. Baking powder is loaded, too. I buy calcium carbonate to replace baking soda and Featherweight Baking Powder which is also sodium free. I replace sugar with Stevia. Stevia even has a brown sugar-stevia combo. I make a awesome pumpkin bread and I don’t feel guilty eating it.

Right there with you Garfield…

No sugar, no fat, no salt; no flavour. No point, whatsoever.

If you are trying to make something low-carb, don’t try for low-fat at the same time. You might as well just eat protein powder at that point. Nothing else is left.

I have made some keto baking recipes with almond flour and sugar substitutes for my diabetic husband. Some were flops, but others the whole family enjoyed. Maybe not as well as the real thing, but take your wins where you get them.

Liz made him do it

Garfield can’t talk
