Amazing dad

Many years ago, my father was visiting America from Europe, for the very first time. He said he wanted to go with me to the supermarket, so I invited him along. As he went up and down the aisles with me, at the local Giant Food Store, he constantly asked me questions about products he saw.

"Vas dis?? Powdered orange juice??" asked my dad .

I said, "Yeah, Dad. You just add a little water, and you have fresh orange juice."

A few minutes later, in a different aisle, dad blurted out, "Und vas dis?? Powdered milk?" .

I said, "Yeah, Dad. You just add a little water, and you have fresh milk!"

A few minutes later, in a different aisle, my dad yelled out, "Und give a look here!! Baby Powder!! Vat a country, vat a country!"
