We’ve Seen Some Big Rats, But…

One time, an escaped hog got into our bakery during a health inspection. The health inspector was checking for vermin and opened the door leading to the alleyway in the back.

The escaped hog came barreling through the door, knocking over the health inspector. As it began to chew on whatever carbohydrates it could get its mouth on, the health inspector addressed our head baker.

Health Inspector: “Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t fail you for this right here and now.”

Head Baker: “I’ll give you two. One, that’s not our pig. And two, you’re the one who let the pig in.”

We did not fail the inspection, but we did have to throw out an awful lot of product and deep-clean the entire pantry.
