A sheep farmer needed help castrating some of his male sheep to prevent them from breeding. He hired a French worker who didn’t speak much English but was strong and efficient.
On the first day, they successfully castrated 14 sheep. As the Frenchman was about to throw away the removed parts, the farmer stopped him.
“No! Don’t throw those away!” he said. “My wife fries them up—we call them ‘sheep fries,’ and they’re delicious!”
That evening, the farmer’s wife served the sheep fries, and the Frenchman found them surprisingly tasty.
The next day, they castrated 16 more sheep, and again, they enjoyed a meal of sheep fries for supper.
But on the third day, when the farmer returned home, his wife looked puzzled.
“It was the strangest thing,” she said. “I told him since we didn’t have many sheep fries tonight, we’d also have French fries. He screamed and ran off like the devil was chasing him!”
