This is reminiscent of a classic from a few years ago ("Sharing") which also dealt with the concept of such sticks serving as the real treat. All a matter of perspective, if you gnaw it over enough.
I tagged this post as a "demo" because I used the original pen & ink piece as an example of how to color in cartoons - colored pencils in this instance. With the caveat that the panel was inked in with the usual dip-pen on smooth Bristol, which is not as conducive as the slightly textured surface of of the vellum alternative, which is great for other dry media such as pastel and graphite. It still came out okay enough, and served as an exhibit on the patience needed to gradually build up layers of value. I had also commented on how The Simpsons skin tones have freed the cartoon world from ever having to use white again. Not to mention this is about as far as one can push the Crayola brand.
