A parody of Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham. In a single panel, a Sam-I-Am-like character in a tall red-and-white striped top hat looks toward a shaggy dog-like creature wearing a tall floppy white chef hat. The striped-hat character says, "I do like green eggs and ham but... tightness... in my... diaphragm..." A caption below explains: "After exposure to a lone star tick bite, Sam-I-Am's friend develops a dangerous allergy to meat" (a real condition, alpha-gal syndrome, that causes meat allergies). The votey aftercomic shows a crudely drawn smiling face beneath rhyming text: "Eat it, Sam-I-Am. I implore ya! Enjoy the shock-induced euphoria!" turning the friend's anaphylactic reaction into a darkly cheerful Seuss-style rhyme.
