Proud Sri Lankan!
A Sri Lankan is calmly having his breakfast when an American,
typically chewing gum, sits down beside him.
The Sri Lankan ignores the American who begins to chat:
The American :
Do you eat that bread-entirely?
The Sri Lankan :
Of course!
The American :
We do not! We only eat the inner part, the crust is put in a
container, later processed, transformed into flour and then sold to
Sri Lanka.
The Sri Lankan says nothing.
The American continues :
Do you eat this jelly with the bread?
The Sri Lankan repeats :
Of course.
The American :
We do not! We eat our fresh fruits for breakfast; we keep all the
peels and seeds in the containers. Later we process it, and transform
it into jelly and then we sell it to Sri Lanka.
The Sri Lankan asks :
And what do you do with the condoms after you use them?
The American :
We throw them away, of course!
The Sri Lankan :
We do not!
We keep them in containers, process them, transform them in to chewing
gum and then sell it to the United States!!!
