Hamming It Up

A Priest and a Rabbi who met at an ecumenical banquet. The Priest offered the rabbi a platter of ham, to which the Rabbi replied, "Father, you know I keep kosher and don't eat of the cloven footed animal." The priest, insensitively replied, "You should try it sometime, its delicious."

Later, the Rabbi introduced his wife to the Priest and asked him why his wife wasn't in attendance. The Priest huffily replied that he had taken the vow of celibacy, thus could not have a woman. Saith the good Rabbi, "Ah, you should try it sometime. Beats the heck outta ham."
