If it's true that "most American families" cook a turkey "only once a year," I'm pretty sure it's for a holiday other than Christmas.

The "Worst 'Holiday' Food" series continues with no end in sight.

Somehow I get the feeling that Tinsley never cooks himself. He just complains endlessly about the food prepared for him by others.

Given his two week lead time, these strips must have been drawn around the time of his DUI arrest. (And I use the word "drawn" loosely. He's devoting one-third of each strip to an identical picture of the duck in a Santa cap and the "Mallard's worst 'holiday' food" logo.)

I'm pleased to report that the fours in 40 and 41 seem to be unique, despite the obvious time-saving bonus inherent in reusing them.

For no apparent reason, they suddenly became limericks.

I *like* canned cranberry sauce.

Pretty lame, but at least he took the time to draw it.

What did I miss? When did Congress make a law prohibiting the free exercise of religion?

A comment on the Duck and Cover blog regarding the holiday food series sums up Tinsley pretty well:

I actually don't think Tinsley has anything against the food itself. I believe he actually has something against the whole of humanity, and he believes attacking things they supposedly enjoy will allow him a small measure of revenge.

In fact, that could pretty much sum up why Tinsley does Mallard Fillmore at all.

So to summarize...

Saturday Congress was making laws prohibiting the free exercise of religion.

Sunday Americans of all religions were allowed to worship in freedom.

Monday Americans weren't allowed to say "Merry Christmas" in public.

By "my", does that mean the cow, the duck, or Tinsley himself?
