Food Joke

He other day, it was my turn to prepare dinner, so I asked my wife to go over to the local market and buy some organic vegetables.She came back rather upset. When I asked her what was wrong, she said, "I don`t think I like that produce guy. I went and lookedaround for your organic vegetables and I couldn`t find any. So I asked him where the organic vegetables were.""He didn`t know what I was talking about, so I said, `These vegetables are for my husband. Have they been sprayed with any poisonous chemicals?`""And he said, `No, ma`am. You`ll have to do that yourself.`"
