The mystery of almonds

A tour bus takes off with a full loan of seniors.

Soon after, a little old lady taps the bus driver on the shoulder. She offers him a handful of almonds, which he gratefully munches up. After about 15 minutes, she taps him on the shoulder again and hands him another handful of almonds. She repeats this gesture many times…

The driver finally has to ask the old lady why she and her elderly friends don’t eat the almonds themselves, whereupon she replies that it’s not possible because of their false teeth. “We are not able to chew them”.

“Why do you buy them then?” the driver asks, feeling puzzled. The old lady answers…

“Oh, we just love the chocolate around them!”
