The Chef’s Secret Ingredient
A famous chef was invited to a cooking show to demonstrate his signature dish. As he prepared the meal, the audience was mesmerized by his precision and flair.
When the dish was ready, the host asked, “Chef, your food is world-famous! Can you tell us the secret ingredient?”
The chef smiled slyly and leaned into the microphone. “Of course… it’s love.”
The crowd erupted in applause. But then a tiny voice from the back yelled, “Wait a minute! Last week, I saw you drop the chicken on the floor!”
The chef froze, then recovered with a grin. “Ah, yes. That’s the other secret ingredient—five-second rule!”
The audience laughed, and from that day on, the chef’s cookbook included a disclaimer: “Secret ingredients may vary depending on circumstances.”
