Thanks to Thelma Hershorn of Toronto, Ontario for sharing this with us:

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary
school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples.
The nun had made a note, and posted it on the tray:
"Take only ONE. God is watching."

Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a
large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note: "Take
all you want. God is watching the apples."
