Indian Jews
Two Jewish men were having a meal in an Indian restaurant in New York.
Moishe thought for a minute, then turned to his friend Abraham and asked, !Hey Abe, do you think there are there any people of our faith who were born and raised in India?”
Abraham replied, “I don’t know the answer to that one, Moishe, never thought about it before”.
So when their waiter passed by a few minutes later, Abraham asked him, “Are there any Indian Jews?”
The waiter gave a confused look and said, “I don't be knowing sir, I ask cooksaheb”.
The waiter went off to the kitchen and returned in a few minutes and said to the pair, “No sir, no Indian Jews”.
Abraham wasn’t really satisfied with that answer and asked the waiter, “Are you absolutely sure?”
The waiter, realizing he was dealing with ‘foreigners,’ gave the expected answer, “I check again,” and he disappeared back into the kitchen.
While the waiter was away in the kitchen, Moishe said, “You know Abraham, I find it really hard to believe that there are no Jews in India. Our people are scattered everywhere throughout the world, surely there must be some Jews in India”.
At that point, their waiter returned and said, “‘Cooksaheb say there is no Indian Jews”.
“Are you quite certain?” Abraham asked once again. “I just can’t believe there are no Indian Jews!”
“Listen, I asked EVERYONE”, the frustrated waiter replied. “All we have is Mango Jews, Pineapple Jews, Orange Jews, Cococnut Jews, and Tomato Jews! No Indian Jews!”
