The paywalled cartoonist gaslights everyone about the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment. The claim is there was one 'free' marshmallow and taking it didn't result in any punishment.

Stanford marshmallow experiment
The Stanford marshmallow experiment was a study on delayed gratification in 1970 led by psychologist Walter Mischel, a professor at Stanford University. In this study, a child was offered a choice between one small but immediate reward, or two small rewards if they waited for a period of time. Wikipedia
Good thing he doesn't experience embarrassment.
