Thanks to Rosemary Zwick for this classic food funny:

A woman buys many gallons of milk from the milkman one day. "Why do you
need so much milk?" the milkman asks. The lady replies, "I heard that
taking baths in milk makes you healthier and prettier." The milkman
asks, "Would you like the milk pasteurized?" She answers, "No, just up to the neck."

__________________________________________________

I'm pretty sure I already hold the record for the number of recipes for
avocado sandwiches, and that's okay with me because I am inordinately
fond of them. Here is one with some "kick."

Santa Fe Avocado Sandwiches

2 Tbs (30 ml) sour cream
1 tsp (5 ml) lemon juice
Hot sauce to taste
Lettuce leaves
4 oz (110 g) sliced Monterey jack cheese
1-2 small avocados, peeled, seeded, and sliced
Several sprigs of cilantro (coriander)
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
4 slices whole-wheat bread, toasted

Combine the sour cream, lemon juice, and hot sauce in a small bowl and
stir to combine. Layer the lettuce, cheese, avocado, cilantro, onion,
salt, and pepper on 2 pieces of bread. Drizzle with the sour cream
mixture and top with the remaining bread.
Serves 2.
