"Front & Back: Fat Furry Edition" #27

I haven't drawn 'Bor-Bor Bear' in a "Front & Back: Fat Furry Edition" comic gag since last Christmas - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/21986041/ - so, I thought it was high time I drew him again in a new (and very topical) gag...
During April, 2017, Starbucks(R) introduced a new flavor on their 'Frappuccino' menu: 'Unicorn Frappuccino' - a rainbow-colored beverage, which has the tangy taste of mango in it. In addition, it was extremely loaded with sugar and cholesterol! TV personality Jimmy Kimmel jokingly announced, "The 'Unicorn Frappuccino' is available now through April 23rd... Or until someone dies... whichever comes first!"
Needless to say, 'Bor-Bor' (and his noise-making belly) felt they were up to the challenge of not only trying this new concoction, but ordering a 'mega-grande'-sized cup of it. The barista (who was not surprised by the burly bear's order), asked for his name - so he can write it out on the cup. The bear's gut intervened, making a rumbling that sounded vaguely like 'Bor-Bor'. Not paying attention, the barista asked, "How do you spell that?!"
Placing the 'mega-grande' cup on his belly (which doubled as a cup holder), 'Bor-Bor' tried the super-sweetened drink, and was hooked on it - developing an instant 'sugar rush'! (Of course, with an immobile bear the size of 'Bor-Bor', the last thing he'll ever do is rush!)
Several servings later, 'Bor-Bor' discovered a slight 'side effect' from drinking the 'Unicorn Frappuccino'; A horn began to grow on his forehead! A small price to pay for trying this high-calorie/high-cholesterol/highly-fattening drink!

The unicorn frappuccino was totally awesome. It's such a shame that I was only able to have one before they sold out.

Well, you're one up on me, Ironmania2003. I didn't even hear about this beverage until two days before the April 23rd deadline. However, I am one up on you in getting a free ice cream cone at one of the participating Carvel stores on April 27th. I got myself a 'Nutella'/'CookieButter' twist for my freebie! CC>

Well, keep contacting Starbucks(R). Maybe, one day, it will become a regular menu item!
