A young man saw an elderly couple at a McDonald’s table. They had only ordered one meal, but had an extra cup for a drink.

The old man carefully split the hamburger in half, then counted out the fries until he and his wife had half the meal in front of them.

The wife watched as her husband began to eat.

“Excuse me,” said the young man. “Could I buy you another meal? That way you won’t have to share.”

“No, thank you,” said the old man. “We’ve been married for 63 years and we always split everything fifty-fifty.”

“I see,” said the young man. He turned to the woman. “Are you going to eat your half of the meal?”

The wife shrugged. “It’s his turn with the teeth.”
