A man enjoyed the taste of mushrooms but had a morbid fear of being poisoned by them, so he never ate them. Yet, one day he ordered a large plate of assorted mushrooms. Why?
lateral thinking or obscure events seem to be the norm. Any ideas please?

[factor-fiction]

He ordered them for his wife in the hope of poisoning her?
Or, more likely, he was on death row, and this was his last request

[squarebear]

How did he know he enjoyed the taste of them if he never ate them?

[bibblebub]

he wanted to prove that he could be a fun guy

[squarebear]

*groan* :-)

[Count-A-Strong]

Because he was in a very small restaurant which therefore didn't have 'much room'

[squarebear]

lol these are getting worse! (as hard as that may be)

[factor-fiction]

Well are you going to put and end to these cracker jokes and put us out of our misery, oldmisery?
