Title translation seems weird this time, but I tried Google and DeepL. Google says “and the preserving”, DeepL says “and the canning”.


As always, stay tuned here on !comicstrips@lemmy.world for a slow trickle out of Jucika comics, but if you want to find more, here’s a good post with a large collection that /u/JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social posted last year: https://piefed.social/post/1258520

    Yeah, I definitely feel like I’m missing some cultural piece here. Maybe some sort of known seasonal event?

    (edit: I’m probably reading too much into “the canning” and it’s just a market or something where people are canning food like normal.)

      Native Hungarian speaker: I don’t think there’s a pun or double meaning. The word “befőzés” specifically means "cooking [preserves/jam]“, it doesn’t sound similar to anything else either really. So canning or preserving seem pretty apt.

      I’m completely speculating but the old lady has fantastic posture for her age (based on clothing style), so maybe she recommends balancing the fruit on the head to preserve posture?
