Bitter vegetables

One day a refined man walked passed a vegetable farm and saw the farmer applying some substances on the vegetables. Out of curiosity, he asked the farmer: “ What are you applying on the vegetables?” The farmer replied: “ Faeces.” “ Why do you use faeces?” The man asked again. The farmer replied: “ So that the vegetables won’t be be bitter.”

After some thought, the man said to the farmer: “ It’s unhygienic. Don’t do it again.” Some time later, the man went to the restaurant which is owned by the farmer. When he tasted the vegetables he ordered, he was extremely astonished by it.

He asked the farmer: “ Why are the vegetables so bitter?” The farmer replied: “ I didn’t apply faeces when I grew them. The man then said: “ Apply now.”
