This comic has a bit of history. When it originally ran in 2010, the punchline was that the final secret ingredient was “1,300 tablespoons of rum!” But I had a request from The Dayton City Paper—which runs Last Kiss every week—for a comic to go with it’s cover story about marijuana.
So, I dug out this comic off and made a minor change. Hence my humor this time is even “dopier” than usual.

“I forget. Do I wear the pasties when serving Beef Wellington? Or is it just the heels and edible undies?”
Go formal. Dress up and wear the pasties!
At today’s extra strength grade of reefer that’s enough to put an elephant down.
Well, I wanted it to be a ridiculously large amount. I guess I succeeded!
