She has a Christian cross on and the wolfman shrimp hybrid is wearing a yarmulke meaning Jewish.

Which is funnier on a whole other level because shrimp are not kosher.

I liked how it's hidden in the second panel by the truck tire.

And how the cross is hidden in the 4th panel by the cleavage.

Tbf I feel like cannibalism isn’t kosher either

It is. Humans aren't forbidden and we'd be considered a clean animal.

If I eat a shrimp that ate human, would that be cannibalism?

If you eat their digestive tract I think it counts (if the human is still in there)

Indeed, here's Genesis 9:3, right after the Quite Big Flood:

Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.

A joke also used on Futurama

I thought that was just a lump on his head :(

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

It is but it's also a hat

[–] PlaidBaron@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Part of it was an excuse to draw cleavage, wasnt it?

[–] CanadianCarl@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago

I didn't notice his hat. Till you pointed it out.

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Pretty sure he's supposed to be a lobster, not a shrimp

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

All shellfish are not kosher.

Oh! That makes sense. I didn’t notice it because it was hidden/camouflaged as the truck tire in the first panel.
