In the second comic strip, dad (while heading off to work) notices the huge box of Choc-O-Crocs. "Whoa!" The box takes up most of the kitchen table.

He then inspects the box further, "...And when the cereal is gone, we can park the car in the empty box." In the third strip, the kids are sitting at the breakfast table with their spoons, wildly enjoying a large container of sugar, while their mother looks on with concern.
