If you want a sorbet maker that offers amazing and super-flavorful treats, I’d recommend Scream Sorbet which is featured in this strip!! My family and I first discovered Scream last fall and have been hooked ever since – the manufacturers use a special method to create sorbet that has the consistency of ice cream and is, no lie, the most flavorful ice cream or sorbet I’ve EVER had. If you live in California, go check it out! And, yes, they really do carry Lemon-Beet flavor. My favorite is the Lime Mint, though, which actually tastes like real mint leaves! I find most other mint ice creams don’t taste like they’ve ever even been in the VICINITY of a mint plant.
In these comics, it’s usually Chapel who goes to extremes and makes a drama out of everything, so I wanted this strip to have her mom be the perpetrator of all the fuss – and with frozen treats, no less, which are usually the domain of kids’ obsessions rather than adults’. But we all know that adults can be as silly as all get-out, which is what I like to showcase in my comics.

if the sea food is cooked or preserved I'm all for it. other wise, toss it back into the ocean.
Oh this looks fun,
Hey I like pancakes,
On so it's sushi,
Well this got ugly fast.
P.S I just realized that I have a lot of weird food stories
well, when you get as old as me, you go though a lot. Not that i would call most of it as "Horror" (with notable exception of working professionally in a serious haunted house show for several years)
What hasn't killed me, either leaves me stronger or scars me. But scars, fez caps, and bow ties are cool in my book.
I got seriously sick after I last time ate Sushi. It colors how i look on that food. Is there good, safe, and tasty sushi out there? sure there is, i just can't bring myself so easily to ever touch it again.
there is one other element I tie into why i dislike sushi but it might be a bit off topic.
I said before, i will be honest with you Miss Emma. even if it is hard to deal with.
Let me guess...I bet your favorite food, Miss L.S.P., is pasta!
I have lived long enough to see the results of women who don't get enough calciem in their diet. The last thing i want to hear that your Mother is getting Osteoporosis. For that matter Miss Emma, you and all the young ladies in here should drink more milk. It absoulty help you out in the long run.
... you still not annoyed with this gruff old man are ya Miss Emma?
that ice cream maker sounds like a great free market entrepreneur, i love it! Say, Miss Emma, can you look into seeing that can they make some Bacon and Maple syrup flavored ice cream. or bacon and orange, bacon and lemon, or bacon and lime, or bacon and bacon- ... what? i like bacon and i confess, i am a fan of "Epic Meal Time"
I think I just want the iron in it... I seem to have caught the flu for the first time ever... I can see why I hadn't ever acquired it before, it is a miserable experience.
Also, though you may not approve Dr Taxil, I like turkey bacon quite well too!
I don't think I've ever had sorbet, but then again I haven't really liked ice cream since I was about six years old.
Humans are ominvores and we should eat like that. it is how Nature and our Lord have made us, so eating some meat once a day is a good thing.
I have lived long enough to see enough about diets. The anti-oxisde diet, the high carb diet, banana diet, vegetarian diet, all protien diet, high fiber diet, and so on and so on. i have just given up on it all.
I just believe that you just eat till you are full, not stuffed. work hard or exersie well. stay away as much as you can from sodas and drink more water. you should be fine.
And no, you won't be seeing Chapel's parents in the comic ;)
If you Google "Scream Sorbet" you can find the list of flavors, but as they only use locally sourced fruit and veggies in their sorbet, I don't think they have a bacon option...
btw Miss Emma, Have you even heard of "Epic Meal Time"?
I HAVE heard of "Epic Meal Time"...I tried to watch one video of it once, but it really grossed me out.
Epic Meal Time isn't for kids, but it's not as bad as most make it out for. Also, it is ULTRA MANLY show to boot! it just shows how far people can go with food and still be tasty to eat. ... safe for your fat and cholesterol levels, IT IS NO! they sure are brave to eat some of what they make.
Anyway, I don't know about it...it's certainly not healthy for the people making it! It makes me feel a little grossed out, but that's just me.
