Mulla Nasruddin Tale - Milk for Mulla

One evening a man carrying a can of milk stopped Mulla Nasruddin in the street and said he had a problem and wanted his advice.

"What is your problem" asked Mulla

"My problem is that though I never drink wine I fell intoxicated when I get up in the morning" explained the man

"What do you drink last thing at night?" asked Mulla, eyeing the milk can in his hand.

"Milk"

"Just as I thought" said Mulla "That is the cause of your problem".

"Milk causes intoxication?" asked the man astonished.

"It is like this" explained Mulla "you drink the milk and go to sleep and toss around in your sleep. The gets churned. It turns into butter.Butter churned, turns into cheese. Cheese turns to fat. Fat into sugar. Sugar into alcohol. So you wake up with alcohol in your stomach. That is why you feel intoxicated in the morning".

"So, what do I do?" asked the man bewildered.

"Simple. Don't drink the milk" said Mulla,

"Here,give it to me".

And taking the milk can from the man, Mulla walked away, leaving the man gaping.
