Nibbles (2003)

I thought it was going to break into a bit of "Duelling Banjos" as we follow a family, awakened by an alarm clock, get into their car and race from the petrol station to the diner then on to the donut shop then the pizza parlour then they have tacos, frites, burgers, gum and the car gets more gas before they eventually arrive at a peaceful rural spot in time to guzzle something fizzy to drink then go fishing. Now it's them that are on the menu as they are quickly at the mercy of some peckish flies (who must like the taste of sugary blood) and of some equally hungry fish. A fracas ensues before they make their journey home - this time more by way of desert shops with ice cream and cakes before they get back and settle down for a much needed plate of fish and then a snooze. I liked the roughness of the drawing here and it's break-neck pace leaves us little room to draw breath for four minutes of sheer gluttony. Might this be the epitome of the consuming society?
