A gum-chewing American and a Frenchman are sitting together in a

> The American feel really proud to be an American, so he starts a
> conversation. He asks the Frenchman, "When you eat bread, do you eat
all
> of
> it?" "Mais oui!,
> of course!" responds the Frenchman.
> "Well," says the American, "we only eat the soft part of it. The rest
we
> collect in containers, take to a factory and put through a mill. What
> comes out are little breads that we sell in France.
>
> "And what about steaks?" he continues. "Do you eat all parts of them?"
> "Bien sur! We do," replies the Frenchman.
> "You don`t say!" says the America, grinning. "We don`t! We only eat
the
> meaty part of the steak. The greasy part we collect in containers,
take
> to a factory, put through a mill, and what comes out are little steaks
> that we sell in France."
>
> Now the Frenchman is really riled. So he asks, "And what do Americans
do
> with their used condoms?"
> "Hey, we throw them away of course," says the American.
>
> "Ha!" exclaims the Frenchman. "We collect them in containers, take
them
> to a factory and put them through a mill. What comes out is chewing
gum
> that we sell in America!"
