Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
This used to be a regular Short Order feature, but it was suspended mainly because there simply aren't that many good jokes about eating, restaurants, or food. Surprising, but true. There are actually lots and lots of jokes about the subjects, but funny ones are far fewer. Our supply was just about exhausted. I'm going to start exploring again, but here in the meantime are a few oldies but goodies.
I bought a talking refrigerator that said "Oink" every time I opened the door. It made me hungry for pork chops. ~Marie Mott
I went to a fancy French restaurant called 'Deja Vu'. The headwaiter said, 'Don't I know you?' ~Rod Schmidt
When I go to a restaurant, I always ask for a chicken and an egg to see which comes first. ~Unknown
Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant? I'm halfway through my fish burger and I realize, 'Oh my God...I could be eating a slow learner!' ~Lynda Montgomery.
We have just received news that Betty Crocker has passed away. Funeral services will be held tomorrow at 3:50 for 25 to 30 minutes. ~Unknown
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck, it probably needs a little more time in the microwave. ~Lori Dowdy
Do chickens think rubber humans are funny?
Keep Miami New Times Free... Since we started Miami New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Miami with no paywalls.
