Seafood Food Puns

that's shellfish."

One was the fish friar, the other was the chip monk!

She declined, said she didn't want to get Salmon-ella.

The would-be mentor insisted on going to a seafood restaurant and then he ordered his favorite meal for the both of them. When the hard working, fresh-out-of-journalism-school grad asked the veteran newshound how he always managed to get witty phrases from the Prime Ministers and Presidents he interviewed, a sly smile swam across his face.

Intrigued, she watched intently while he reached for his wallet then removed a €5 note. Holding it toward her face over the table, she was surprised when the greying beat writer dropped the money directly on her uneaten dinner and held an index finger to his closed lips.

As they both looked down at the seafood platter, his paper Euro was suddenly sucked under the rings of fried calamari until it disappeared from sight. After what sounded like a stand-up comedian clearing his throat, a male voice with an Eastern European accent clearly rose out of her food. It said, "Trump asked for dirt on Biden so I sent him some good Ukrainian topsoil."

As the gobsmacked gal with mouth agape slowly raised her eyes to her grinning dinner guest's face, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "squid pro quote".

Required Explanation: "squid pro quote" is a play on words for the saying "quid pro quo", a Latin phrase meaning "something for something". In the news at the time of this posting a tremendous amount of discussion is being circulated about whether or not US president Trump dangled a quid pro quo offer in front of Ukraine's newly elected president, Volodymyr Zelensky. The deal had nothing to do with seafood however, so that was just a red herring. It should also be noted that Mr. Zelensky, before diving into politics, was a stand-up comedian.

I have a scrawny, little, younger sister and we always have a seafood buffet for Christmas dinner.

Sister: "Hey, dad can you pass me the shrimp and I want some mussels too please?"

Dad: "Here's the shrimp, for mussels you're gonna have to go to a gym and do some exercising" [continues eating his food without ever passing the mussels]

Sister: "Hey, dad....."

Pops: "Hay is for horses, this is seafood."

This was especially funny due to the fact that he kept a poker face the entire time and never made eye contact with my sister, being completely serious and never cracking a smile. These exchanges happen at least 7X a day.

So I am staying in Germany with a host family. I know little German and we all went out for lunch. I was looking at the seafood section and I took forever in deciding what I wanted, going back and forth between the salmon and the sea bass. I finally decided on the sea bass, and we order our food.

So some restaurants in Germany are a lot more casual than American restaurants, and you sometimes seat yourself and the waiter/waitress will bring the silverware and napkins to you later. So when I saw the waiter bring over a plate with silverware and napkins on it, he placed it in front of me, to which I naturally said:

"Well, I could have sworn I ordered the sea bass."

My host family literally died laughing.

My grandfather said this one while we were eating...

G-Pa: Asian accent Do you like seafood?

Me: Uhh...I guess?

G-Pa: Opens mouth. See food!

Every time there is a discussion about food or diets.

Boss: Every time I see food, I have to eat it.

Me: Red Lobster is kind of expensive. Him: Yea most seafood is. I don't know why though, I see food everywhere!

smh lol.

I was recently on a diet. A week ago I came home and entered the living room (where my dad and brother were watching T.V.) digging through a bag of chips.

Brother to me: "What kind of diet are you on?"

Before I can answer, my Dad blurts out: "A seafood diet. Because whenever she see food, she eats it!"

"Hey, did I tell you I started a new diet? It's a seafood diet. When I 'SEE food', I eat it! HAH!"

I've only worked with him a day and I've already got these two:

Man "Yeah, I don't really like seafood." Coworker "Oh yeah? What about B-food?"

Man (looking at a remote to lock and unlock a door) "I wonder what the range of this is?" Coworker "Depends...how far can you throw it?"

Doc: Your weight problem is because of your "seafood" diet... Me: (puzzled) Doc: When you "see food", you eat.

The seafood diet. You see food, you eat it. --- Sorry if this was already posted, my dad just told me this after calling me fat.

...and he said: "Don't worry, you'll be back on your seafood diet soon."

I asked: "What do you mean?" because I had never been on a seafood diet.

He promptly replied: "A seafood diet- you see food, and you eat it."
