Beef Bandage: Difference between revisions

* In an issue of ''[[Asterix]]'', a merchant asks a butcher for a steak after getting badly beaten up.

* Was standard treatment for a black eye in ''[[The Beano]]'', ''[[The Dandy (comics)|The Dandy]]'' and so on, in the good old days when children's comic characters regularly beat each other up to that extent.

 

== Film ==

* Done at one point in ''[[Dragonheart]]''.

* In ''[[Gangs of New York]]'', Amsterdam gets a nice bloody slab slapped on his eye wound after a dust up with Bill's right-hand man. Appropriate enough, given it happens in a butcher shop.

 

== Literature ==

* Done at least once in [[Tamora Pierce]]'s ''[[Tortall Universe|Song of the Lioness]]'' series.

 

* Kramer applies a Beef Bandage to his face in an episode of [[Seinfeld]].

* Occurs in an episode of ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'' to Peter.

* In an episode of ''[[Green Acres]]'' that tells the story of some farmers in a book Oliver is reading, the character that Lisa plays puts one over Oliver's character's eye after getting into a fight at a barn dance. Actually it was pot roast, but same difference.

* In ''[[Roundhouse]]'', the "new kid" uses one following a punch from [[The Bully]], until his [[Bumbling Dad]] [[Squick|asks to put it on the grill]].

 

== Web Comics ==

* Discussed in ''[[Bad Machinery]]'', [http://scarygoround.com/?date=20120514 here]. Mildred is skeptical about whether it actually works, while Lottie thinks it's supposed to be a reminder that "you're doing pretty good compared to the cow".

 

== Western Animation ==
