At my earlier newspaper office in Mumbai, a
banana was always served with lunch. When a reporter resigned after years of
service, she exclaimed, “My only worry now is how to survive without a banana
for lunch.”
Another friend faces a peculiar problem. His
office canteen mostly serves biscuits and he is fed up of cookies. Last week,
his little son rushed towards him offering some biscuits. The moment my friend
saw the biscuits, he yelled “huttt,” leaving the bewildered boy wondering what
blunder he had committed.
An affectionate student at my wife’s school
in Dubai always asked his teacher to taste or share from his
lunchbox. The other day, the vegetarian teacher was embarrassed when the boy
offered non-vegetarian food. She pleadingly declined. The boy looked upset,
went to his seat and returned after five minutes. “I have removed all the meat.
Now you can taste maam.”
Heard this joke: “What did baby corn ask mum
corn?”
“Where's popcorn?”
Thats a nice essay Ramesh...yes it was very common to see a banana n the lunch plate,somehow made the lunch look very appealing and wholesome.I could almost visualize the girl's repulsion to biscuits.
