deliciousness without salmonella
My boss came around offering peanuts.
We all looked at them warily.
"From Nigeria," he says reassuringly, offering the container.
We all eagerly took some.*
[Me: From a Nigerian scammer who bought them in America?
Him: ....
Me: Never mind. Give me some?]
(* in case you did not know, a major peanut and peanut-paste supplying corporation let loose salmonella in their peanuts/peanut butter. Otherwise, this joke makes very little sense, unless you read it as a play on the Nigerian scammer email thing, and wow, this becomes less funny by the minute. I would say this is a good argument for keeping up on current events so this is funnier. If it ever can be.)
