      I’m assuming it’s a joke based on “campari” wine sounding like “calamari”, and thus the squid is being dropped into the barrel to stomp on the grapes. Tell you something though, seeing all of the comics on Lemmy makes the Far Side collections, where they’ve selected out all the ones that make sense and/or are funny, into a revelation.

        I drink Campari but have never heard of Campari Blanc.

        I was wondering if it was maybe trying to tie in a joke about squid ink, which was a trendy ingredient in the 1980’s.

          To be honest, that’s equally likely. Some of these comics are head-scratchers.
