Peanut Butter and Bacterium

In today's Dinette Set, Burl and Joy discuss food poisoning for the purpose of:
  • Illustrating that The Dinette Set is only topical in the most inappropriate instances.
  • Accidentally creating a parallel between the phrase "born yesterday" and the fact that Joy and Burl purchased peanut butter yesterday, despite the fact that there's nothing to be gained from examining the parallel.
  • Demonstrating that there is no such thing as a toilet joke worth making when you don't fully grasp the distinction between being scatological and simply being gross.
  • Deeply saddening the reader with the knowledge that Burl and Joy will survive eating those jars of peanut butter.
