Once upon a time, for real, I played fiddle for the BYU Folk Ensemble during the early 1993's.
On one of our tours we were in South America and we were all trying empenadas. It's like a pastry with meat filling and other mystery ingredients.
Some of us in the band were standing around eating our empanadas, when someone told a funny story which made our guitarist laugh and cough so hard a large chunk of empanada flew out of his mouth about 10 feet away and it LANDED, stuck on our banjo player's hand.
OH. MY. GROSS. And hilarious. And, wait.... what's he.... no, he's not going to...
Yes, the banjo player saw it on his hand, and ATE IT. Clearly he thought it had fallen out of his own mouth and thought he'd discreetly dispose of the evidence.
It was like a bad on bad deal. Just sayin'.
Lesson learned: don't eat food that falls either out of your mouth because it might have fallen out of someone else's mouth.
The End.
p.s. Jackson won a gift certificate to an Empenada factory for an art contest. I'm so excited.

How about the time you learned not to sneak a piece of meat until you know more about why it's sitting out....can we hear that story next? 😳I sure love you and your stories Emily!
ew!
But again, I did laugh out loud!
Hysterical! But what's the rest of the story...when someone said "Wait! That didn't come from your mouth", did he at least spit it back out or did he just finish it up?
hahahahaha!
