Panel 1:"I'm looking for a gift for my girlfriend, Trudy." "Oh, HO! You DOG!" Panel 2:"Any advice for me, Gramps?" "Yes. Don't give her a bird-feeder." Panel 3:"You gave Gram a bird-feeder once?" "Once." Panel 4:"She didn't like it, huh?" "She was ok with the bird-feeder. She wasn't nuts about the suet.
I wouldn’t be too nuts about the suet, either: “Bird feed is commonly used in the form of cakes of suet, which can be made with other solid fats, such as lard. Rolled oats, bird seed, cornmeal, raisins, and unsalted nuts are often incorporated into the suet cakes.” (Quote from Wikipedia.)
