12/01/25 – Food

A caption reads, "An undisclosed time later..." Lasper and Val lay in bed naked under the blankets and holding hands. Lasper said, "That was so lovely." Val said, "Yeahhhh! Now I'm hungry." As Lasper got dressed, Val (who has a coat of fur and therefore doesn't wear clothes) went to the kitchen, and seeing a pile of empty chocolate bar wrappers said, "Sigh. It looks like she ate all of her chocolate right before leaving." Entering the kitchen, Lasper pulled out his approxiscan and said, "So you know about using an approxiscanto test food?" Val said, "Well, Gerek told me it could, but I don't know how." Lasper opened a cupboard, and said, "Approxiscan, what can a tithoron eat here? See how it shows you?" And indeed, little points of light came from it to indicate certain foods. Val said, "Thank you. Good to know." She then opened the freezer and said, "Would you check here in the freezer?" Turning the approxiscan to the freezer, he said, "Food which is edible to you would be... brussel sprouts, broccoli, some spinach. Oh, and this box of, let's see,'strawberry ice cream,' but the approxiscan says that it's full of an addictive sweetener and has no nutritional value." Looking confused and pointing at the freezer, which is slightly tall for her to easily get into, Val said, "Um, why are you still talking and not handing me the ice cream?"

A caption reads, “An undisclosed time later…” Lasper and Val lay in bed naked under the blankets and holding hands. Lasper said, “That was so lovely.” Val said, “Yeahhhh! Now I’m hungry.” As Lasper got dressed, Val (who has a coat of fur and therefore doesn’t wear clothes) went to the kitchen, and seeing a pile of empty chocolate bar wrappers said, “Sigh. It looks like she ate all of her chocolate right before leaving.” Entering the kitchen, Lasper pulled out his approxiscan and said, “So you know about using an approxiscanto test food?” Val said, “Well, Gerek told me it could, but I don’t know how.” Lasper opened a cupboard, and said, “Approxiscan, what can a tithoron eat here?

  1. I personally recommend my family favorite treat of a Roulneeth dunked into a somewhat hot mug of Roulneethdunk. I have already had my morning mug of Roulneethdunk but I have to ration my consumption of Roulneeths because overly many would just go to waist.

    See 04/23/20 – The Scoop
    (“The Scoop” strip oddly contains no mention at all of ice cream.)
