An old man and a young man work together in an office. The old man always has a jar of peanuts on his desk, and the young man really loves peanuts.
One day, while the old man is away from his desk, the young man yields to temptation and scarfs down over half of the contents of the jar. When the old man returns, the young man feels guilty and confesses to his crime.
"Don't worry, son. I never eat the peanuts anyway," the old man replies. "Since I lost my teeth, all I can do is gum chocolate off the M&M's."

有一天,那个老人离开了他的桌子,这个年轻人抵挡不住诱惑,低下头看着那半瓶花生。当这个老人回来后,那个年轻人感觉很愧疚就向他坦白罪行了。
“不要担心,儿子。我反正从来不吃花生的,”老人回答道。“因为我没牙齿了,我能做的只有把M&M花生巧克力的外层巧克力吃了。”
