"The man in that creepy shop I went to was very specific that I was not to give you marshmallows after midnight. That was yesterday, so (shrug) . "

Mad Marie
2025-02-11 08:49:58 +0000 UTCNo disagreement. I'm just saying, if you don't have the topping on-hand, you're probably not ready to offer it. However, having read today, and found out that it's a *secret menu item* I don't feel I should be judging.

2025-02-11 02:44:58 +0000 UTCI'm against whipped cream in the concoction unless the hot cocoa is made _in_ whipped cream.

2025-02-10 22:07:14 +0000 UTCNow I'm imagining marshmallows stuffed with whipped cream. This is it, this is how I make my fortune!
Clifton Royston
2025-02-10 21:44:41 +0000 UTCI resemble that statement. I'm still thrown sometimes by realizing that most people do NOT go out and start reading scientific papers on whatever topics they've gotten interested in.

2025-02-10 21:28:30 +0000 UTCI don't like marshmallows or whipped cream with my cocoa. Or in/on anything else.

Hugh Eckert
2025-02-10 20:16:46 +0000 UTCThat's not fair, that's atrocious. Only the redneck McPhonalds Wurger Sling yankee imperialists could perpetrate such blasphemies. Anything other than (at most) frothed milk (or a few spiders) is an insult to any honest bean.

Mikey Bear
2025-02-10 17:05:35 +0000 UTCTo be fair, Marten should know to have whipped cream and marshmallows in stock at all times if he's going to run a decent coffee shop.

Melissa Wilson
2025-02-10 14:45:31 +0000 UTCWe avoid that debate in our house by making it with both cocoa powder & chopped chocolate. It’s hot cocoalate! 🍫 ☕️

Michael Steamweed
2025-02-10 14:33:09 +0000 UTCIt has no artificial sweeteners and I taste artificial sweeteners like some people taste the soap in cilantro. It has 21g of sugar per packet (35g) of cocoa mix.
Miyaa

Michael Steamweed
2025-02-10 14:28:30 +0000 UTCI could see Marten watching a video from Morgandrinkscoffee about how to turn banana peels into banana syrup (add sugar to banana peels then strain out the pulp leaving banana syrup after 4+ hours) but not thinking you need whipped cream for coffees and cocoa.
Miyaa
2025-02-10 14:27:41 +0000 UTCAAAH!
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-10 14:27:31 +0000 UTCIf you give a gremlin hot chocolate, she’s going to want whipped cream…
Richard Lindquist
2025-02-10 14:27:25 +0000 UTCI'm getting the idea that Marten's coffee shop is growing its inventory _very_ slowly. Like, a new thing every 1-2 weeks.
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-10 14:25:46 +0000 UTC"Hot cacao", ya posers.
Michael Steamweed

Miyaa
2025-02-10 14:21:47 +0000 UTCNext week: "Here is your whipped cream." "What? No marshmallows?" "Gremlins don't get marshmallows."
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-10 14:21:09 +0000 UTCBut she didn’t demand hot chocolate. She demanded cocoa.
Philip Masters
2025-02-10 14:01:21 +0000 UTCSerious cocoa is there for the chocolate flavour, not the sugar or the dairy. Let alone air. (But then, I favour 70% cocoa solids chocolate. And my life partner prefers 85%. Neither with added vomit flavour, thanks.)
Philip Masters
2025-02-10 14:00:22 +0000 UTCI dunno. A truly serious coffee shop might consider whipped cream to be a superfluous frivolity that detracts from the serious business of tasting the coffee.
Philip Masters
2025-02-10 13:54:49 +0000 UTCLiz, take advice from Elliot: "Even a bad hot chocolate is still a hot chocolate." https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4637
BookBeard
2025-02-10 13:52:42 +0000 UTCIt’s specifically cocoa. Adding whipped cream is a modern variation at best. Heck, it’s probably mostly a modern variation with drinking chocolate.

Maurice
2025-02-10 11:21:36 +0000 UTCDepends on the details. Don't add whipped cream for the lactose intolerant guy. But as a general menu item, I agree your hot cocoa should have something. If not whipped cream, then marshmallows, or I could accept a cinnamon sprinkle.
Raymond Dannelly
2025-02-10 09:29:07 +0000 UTCNow I really want hot chocolate...

SilverbackRon
2025-02-10 06:37:44 +0000 UTCYes, she most certainly would
SilverbackRon
2025-02-10 05:48:27 +0000 UTCIs... is it canon now that Marten doesn't know how hot chocolate is supposed to be served?
James Anthony
2025-02-10 05:41:01 +0000 UTCIt would be kind of weird if a coffee shop didn't have whipped cream.
Omnithea
2025-02-10 05:00:17 +0000 UTCI kind of love that those are still in the comic. They've been such a staple of the background and I didn't even realize I was possibly sad if they disappeared after Marten moving.

Maurice Kessler
2025-02-10 03:50:39 +0000 UTCHonestly she would be really great market research in that regard, "okay, so literally my worst customer wants these things, which other people ALSO like. If I can make HER happy I can make any customer happy"

Grace Kieser
2025-02-10 02:55:04 +0000 UTCFirst read that as "Do you have any whipped cream?" and was confused by Marten's reaction. It would've been so easy to be nice, just use two letters less, Liz.
Nulgar
2025-02-10 02:53:50 +0000 UTCIs that poster behind her from Marten’s apartment?
Populuxe

Doc Gumby
2025-02-10 02:50:18 +0000 UTCShe is right though. Canadian law states that it has to be either whipped cream or those little marshmallows.
