Two Jewish men, Sid and Al, were sitting in a Greek restaurant in New York. Sid asked Al, 'Are there any people of our faith born and raised in Greece?'
Al replied, 'I don't know, let's ask our waiter.'
When the waiter came by, Al asked him, 'Are there any Greek Jews?' The waiter said, 'Aronno, I ask cooks.'
He returned from the kitchen in a few minutes and said, 'No sir, no Greek Jews.'
l wasn't really satisfied with that and asked, 'Are you absolutely sure?' The waiter, realizing he was dealing with 'xenoi' [foreigners] gave the expected answer, 'I check again,' and went back into the kitchen. While the waiter was away, Sid said, 'I find it hard to believe that there are no Jews in Greece, our people are scattered everywhere.'
The waiter returned and said, 'The head cook say there is no Greek Jews.' 'Are you certain?' Al asked once again, 'I can't believe there are no Greek Jews!'
'Gamoto mou ! I asked EVERYONE,' replied the exasperated waiter. 'All we have is Orange Jews, Apple Jews & Tomato Jews!
Al replied, 'I don't know, let's ask our waiter.'
