A French man is having his coffee, croissants, bread, butter and jam
at the breakfast table when an American sits down next to him.
The Frenchman ignores the American who, nevertheless, starts a
conversation.
"You French folk eat the whole bread?" asks the American, with a large
piece of chewing gum in his mouth.
"Of course!"
The American blows a bubble with his chewing gum, then remarks, "We
don't. In the States, we only eat what's inside. We collect the crusts
in containers, recycle them, then transform them into croissants, and
sell them to France."
The American has a smirk on is face. All the while, the Frenchman
listens in silence.
"Do ya eat jelly with the bread?" asks the American.
"Of course!"
The American cracks his gum between his teeth and chuckles, "We don't.
In the States, we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, put all peels, seeds
and leftovers in containers, recycle them, then transform them into
jam, and sell it to France."
"And, what do you Americans do with condoms once you've used them?"
asks the Frenchman.
"We throw them away, of course," replies the American, with a
dumbfounded look.
The Frenchman explains, "We don't. In France, we put them in a
container, recycle them, then melt them down into chewing gum and sell
it to America."
