Are the goalposts edible? And would it stop Dagwood if they weren't?

Blondie, 8/3/23

It's a little unsettling that Blondie just produces this elaborate sandwich tray out of nowhere between the second and third panels. I'm imagining her humming softly to herself as she made it over the course of the quiet morning before these ladies showed up, thinking, with increasing anticipation, about her husband "going away" as football season got into swing. Oh, sure, he'd be there, physically, for the most part. But she'd sure have to deal with him a lot less. "How nice! Where are they going?" she asks, innocently, hoping to have found others in the same predicament.
