A man went to his dentist because he feels
something wrong in his mouth.
The dentist examines him and says,
„that new upper plate I put in for
you six months ago is eroding.
What have you been eating?“
The man replies, „all I can think of is
that about four months ago my
wife made some asparagus and put some
stuff on it that was delicious
… Hollandaise sauce. I loved it so
much I now put it on everything —
meat, toast, fish, vegetables,
everything.“
„Well,“ says the dentist, „that’s probably the problem.
Hollandaise
sauce is made with lots of lemon juice, which is highly
corrosive.
It’s eaten away your upper plate. I’ll make you a new
plate, and this
time use chrome.“
„Why chrome?“ asks the
patient. To which the dentist replies, „It’s
simple. Everyone knows that
… there’s no plate like chrome for the
Hollandaise!“
