Baked Apple
BAKED APPLE
An elderly rabbi, having just retired from his duties in the temple, finally decides to fulfill his lifelong fantasy to taste pork. He goes to a hotel in the Catskills in the off-season, and not his usual one, mind you. He enters the empty dining hall and sits down at a table tucked far into a corner. The waiter arrives, and the rabbi orders roast suckling pig.
As the rabbi is waiting, struggling with his conscience, a family from his congregation walks in! Seeing him in the corner, and not wanting him to eat alone, they immediately join him. Shocked, the rabbi can only sit and sweat, making small talk.
At last the waiter arrives with a huge domed platter. He lifts the lid to reveal a fully cooked roast suckling pig, complete
with a big apple in its mouth.
"This place is amazing!" cries the rabbi. "You order a baked apple, and look what you get!"
