34. German kids used to tell this one:

Apr 2019

A few people are riding in a train compartment with six seats.

A man next to the window has a bunch of bnanas, takes out a banana, peels it, takes out a salt shaker, shakes a layer of salt up and down the banana, opens the window and tosses it out. The others stare, but say nothing.

The man then takes out another banana, peels it, and again, puts salt all up and down the banana, opens the window and tosses the banana out. He does this with every last banana in the bunch.

Finally one of the other passengers can't hold it in any longer, and comments, "you don't like bananas very much, do you?"

The man says, "on the contrary, I love bananas, but not with salt on them, yecch!"
