Can cherry pie lose its cherry?
Can olive oil lose its virginity?
Virgin olive oil? As opposed to slutty olive oil?
I often tell this joke in Italian restaurants, particularly if the waitress is young and cute:
“Do you want to know what sort of olives are used to make ‘extra virgin olive oil’?”
She’ll usually grin nervously and say no.
“Those are olives,” I continue, “that have never even thought of being alone with a salad.”
While she tries to get her head around that I ask, “Betcha thought I was going to say something dirty, didn’t you?”
