Tamago-No-No!

I picked up my girlfriend from the Japanese restaurant she works at and am driving her home. She is eating a to-go bowl the kitchen made for her. English is not her first language.

Girlfriend: “Ooh! There’s an egg in it!”

Me: “Is it a chicken egg or a quail egg?”

Girlfriend: “It is a Japanese egg!”

Me: *Laughing.* “I… I don’t think the Japanese are an egg-laying species, dear.”
