His Explanation Isn’t Kosher
(I work in a college dining hall in the kosher kitchen.)
Customer #1: “Hey, so what is kosher anyways?”
Me: “Well, it’s—”
Customer #2: “It means the food has been watched over by one of their priests.”
Me: “No, actually, that’s a common misconception. It’s actually—”
Customer #2: “No, it’s not. That’s how it works. Clearly, you don’t know what you’re talking about.” *the guy is wearing a cross around his neck*
Me: “That’d be amazing, considering I’m an Orthodox Jew and I’ve kept kosher all my life. I wasn’t aware that non-Jews knew more about my religion than I do. Please, go on.”
(Customer #2 huffed and left. His friend looked slightly embarrassed and hurried away before I can continue my explanation.)
