Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Calvin and Hobbes is famous for great takes on a wide variety of subjects – from growing up, to reckoning with death, to food. Creator Bill Watterson often had something amusing to say on the last subject, whether that was Calvin grossing out Susie Derkins with lunchtime tales of suspicious meat, or Calvin trying to be nice and bringing his mom breakfast in bed.
10 Calvin Pops Off First Published: May 2, 1986 In this strip, Calvin and Hobbes make some classic, stove-popped popcorn. However, leaving the lid off the pot creates chaos – which seems to be part of the intended recipe. It’s the latest in Calvin and Hobbes’s culinary experiments, as they can already compare it to the fun of exploding potatoes in the microwave. This strip came Calvin and Hobbes’ run, indicating early on that Calvin saves some special creativity for playing with his food.
Calvin’s mom suggesting her husband can make his own cereal comes back years later in another Calvin and Hobbes storyline. When Calvin's mom is bedridden with an illness, Calvin and his dad try to pick up the slack around the house, including doing all the cooking. Calvin is at first surprised that his dad knows how to cook anything that’s not freshly-caught fish on a camping trip, and his dad retorts that he took care of himself for years before he married.

As the strip progressed, however, it seemed the two both enjoyed these insane moments of Calvin playing with his food: Susie kept sitting next to him, and Calvin started taking it personally when he chased her away.
Not only does sucking the ice cream through the bottom of the cone make some “awful noises,” but as the ice cream melts, everything is a drippy mess at both ends. As this strip makes clear, Calvin wants his food to be delicious and entertaining.
