Howard Beale posted:I was curious why Milt Gross would use the common "applesauce" for the bullshit panel instead of his own "Banana Oil!" catchphrase, so I looked it up and it turns out this strip was a month away from Banana Oil's debut. So here he's playing with the concept before he realizes he needs a change of fruit. It's true - soon the "Applesauce" gag at the end of the strip becomes "Banana Oil." Then the whole comic becomes Banana Oil. An interesting comic strip evolution, and one that gave Gross more flexibility with subjects and characters. And He Did!
