cooking

A four-panel comic at a dinner table. Panel 1: A dark-haired woman seated at the table says to a red-haired man, "Wow! This is amazing! How'd you get so good at cooking?" Panel 2: The man, alone, thinks to himself: "I find a highly-rated recipe online, follow the instructions, and make no substitutions." Panel 3: Out loud, he instead says, "I just like messing around with flavors." Panel 4: The woman, impressed, gushes, "Wowwwwwww." The joke: he gets praise for creative cooking by lying about his actually rigid, by-the-book method. Votey (bonus panel): The woman says, "I bet you can cook anything!" The man replies, "Technically, yes."
