Surinder's uncle was booked into
an SIA flight to Bombay. But as this was his first time in an
airplane, he made a few preparations that were out of place. When
the stewardess came around to take orders for the in-flight meal,
the uncle declared loudly, "I have brought my own lunch.
Make sure you don't charge me for food and drinks!" So, as
everybody was given their in-flight meal, the uncle began
spreading out his own home-cooked meal. The man sitting next to
him was an American history researcher, who was curious about the
food.
"Excuse me, what is that drink?" he asked.
The uncle picked up the yogurt-based lassi drink and said,
"Milk of India!"
The the uncle took out several pieces of chapattis and started
feasting.
"And what is that dish?" asked the curious American.
Wheat of India!" replied the uncle proudly.
Finally, the uncle took out some desserts. He offered some to the
American.
"What is it?" asked the American.
"Sweet of India!" replied the old man.
After the meal, everyone was settling down when there was a loud
"Pooooooooot!" from the uncle.
"What was that?" asked the American in disgust.
The old man replied coolly, "That's Air India!"
