A gum-chewing American and a Frenchman are sitting together in a > restaurant. > > 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!"
