A blind man enters a restaurant and sits down. The owner, who also serves as the waiter, hands him a menu. The man smiles politely and says, “I’m blind and can’t read that. If you could just bring me a used fork from another table, I’ll know what to order.”
Puzzled but intrigued, the owner brings over a fork from the dirty dishes. The man smells it and nods. “Great—I’ll take the meatloaf with mashed potatoes.”
Amazed, the owner rushes to the kitchen to tell his wife, the cook.
A few days later, the blind man returns. Out of habit, the owner offers a menu again. The man chuckles and says, “You remember—I’m the blind customer.” The owner quickly grabs another used fork. After sniffing it, the man says, “That smells delicious. I’ll have macaroni and cheese with broccoli.”
Still curious, the owner decides to test him. The next week, when the man comes in, the owner asks his wife Mary to rub a fork on her underwear as a prank.
When the blind man smells the fork, he pauses, smiles, and says,
“Well, I didn’t know Mary worked here!”
