A Crabby Reaction

(I have recently developed a severe allergy to shellfish. My brother offers me a crab-meat sandwich.)

Me: “I love crab, but you know I can’t eat this!”

Brother: “Relax. It’s artificial crab. I checked.”

(I take a bite of the sandwich. Within seconds, I begin having trouble breathing. Luckily I havn’t eaten much, so I am fine after some Benadryl.)

Me: “You told me it was artificial crab!”

Brother: “I’m sorry! I thought your allergy was all in your head. I was trying to prove it to you!”
