Personal - Well, it's not sterile, but...

Offspring wanted a bite of an apple I was eating the other day. Since she doesn't do too well with biting off from the apple, I reached in my pocket, pulled out my pocket knife and cut her off a slice. As she was about to bite into it the mate screamed, "Don't give her that!" I was a bit taken aback.

"That knife is not clean! Don't use it to feed my daughter!"

"Ummm... ok, but if it's clean enough to gut a fish it ought to be clean enough to cut an apple," I said.

She still doesn't think I'm as funny as I think I am.
