AI Analysis

The title of this comic strip is "Catsup" and it was originally published in the newspaper.

Summary

The comic strip is a humorous take on the common mistake of using the word "catsup" instead of "ketchup." The story begins with a man trying to act human by ordering food at a restaurant. He orders two ravioli supremes and garlic bread, but when the waiter asks if he wants catsup, the man is confused. He thinks the waiter is asking about cats, not catsup. The man's friend tries to explain the difference, but the man is still unsure. The comic strip ends with the man ordering something called "siamese," which is likely a play on the word "sauce."
