An Englishman is visiting an American farmer and is impressed with the production.
He asks the farmer what he does with the food his family can't eat?
The farmer, being somewhat of a rum wit, replies "We eat what we can and what we can't we can"
Well the Englishman though this was an awfully clever pun so when he got back home he wanted to tell his friends about it
"when I asked the farmer what he did with the excess food, the farmer told me, 'we eat what we can and what we can't we put up in tins!'"
