4. Al Capp created the shmoo. They Taste Like Chicken, yes they do.

"Shmoos are delicious to eat, and are eager to be eaten. If a human looks at one hungrily, it will happily immolate itself, either by jumping into a frying pan, after which they taste like chicken, or into a broiling pan, after which they taste like steak. When roasted they taste like pork, and when baked they taste like catfish. (Raw, they taste like oysters on the half-shell.)"

I'm looking for the original Lil'Abner cartoon strips mentioned in the article.
