Description

Here is the detailed description of the comic:

Panel 1: A character with a beard and glasses exclaims, "I PAY BY WEIGHT?! YOU'RE LETTING ME BUY SALAD BY WEIGHT?" He appears surprised.

Panel 2: Another character, cheerful and wearing a red shirt, responds, "HAHAHA! THEN WHAT'S TO STOP ME FROM LOADING UP ON HIGH PRICE-TO-WEIGHT RATIO ITEMS, LIKE CROUTONS, DRIED FRUIT, AND CRUMBLED CHEESE??"

Panel 3: The first character continues, "WHAT’S TO STOP ME FROM SELECTING MY SALAD ENTIRELY BASED ON WINNING, INSTEAD OF MAKING A SALAD THAT I ACTUALLY WANT??"

Panel 4: The cheerful character replies, "PLEASE SEE THE NOTE ON YOUR MENU."

Panel 5: The first character looks at a menu that he is holding.

Panel 6: He reads the note aloud, "Please be aware: The salad is a metaphor for life." He appears contemplative.

Final Panel: The first character, now with a realization, simply says, "OH."

The comic's overall theme focuses on humorous commentary about choices, value, and the deeper meaning behind seemingly simple decisions.
