GARBAGE IN YOUR SALAD

There was a mother peeling vegetables for a salad when her daughter, home from college, casually mentioned she was going to a questionable movie that evening. The mother suddenly picked up a handful of garbage and threw it in the salad.

"Mother!" said the shocked girl. "Why are you putting garbage in the salad?"

"Well," replied the mother, "I figured that if you didn't mind garbage in your mind, you certainly wouldn't care if there's a little in your stomach."
