The teacher brought in a bag of candy during her science class about the five senses. "The sense of the day is taste" she said. "So we're going to do a little experiment. I want you close your eyes and I'll hand each of you a piece of candy. When I say "go", taste it and then tell me what flavor it is." Teacher gave them each a lemon jelly bean to taste - and everyone yelled LEMON! Next up was a red gumdrop and everyone tasted it and immediately yelled CHERRY! "This next one," Teacher warned, "Is going to be a bit harder" She then handed out pale gold honey-flavored pieces of toffee. As the children chewed and tasted, and the room remained quiet - nobody can figure it out. After moment or two, Teacher decided to give them a hint saying, "I want you to think about something your mom might call your dad." Suddenly a look of enlightenment washed over Little Johnny's face. He quickly jumped up and yelled, "Guys - spit 'em out, spit 'em out - they're assholes!"
