Comic books often add flavour to food by fanning the imagination
One of the best things about the Asterix comic book series is the food that the brave Gaul’s healthy friend, Obelix, eats in every adventure. He holds a barbecued boar dripping with fat, just off the fire, and then proceeds to demolish it.
I was happy to see that the last page of a new release — Asterix and the Griffin, created by Jean-Yves Ferri and Didier Conrad — had that old familiar scene of the Gauls gathered around a table for a feast. Cacofonix has been tied up and gagged. And Obelix is holding up a plump wild boar.
