The word vegetable has no scientific definition, so it’s still acceptable to call a tomato a vegetable.

Food Joke

A woman was walking down the street when she was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollars for some food. She got out her purse and took ten dollars out and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy wine with it instead of food?" "No, I had to stop drinking years ago", the homeless woman told her. "Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" she asked. "No, I don't waste time shopping," the homeless woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive." "Will you spend this in a beauty salon instead of food?" she asked. "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. "Ihaven't had my hair done in 20 years!" "Well," she said, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my husband and me tonight." The homeless woman was shocked. "Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting." The woman says, "That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and wine."
