The waiter, who is also the owner, walks up to the blind man and hands him a menu. 

“I’m sorry sir, but I am blind, and can’t read the menu. 

Just bring me a dirty fork from a previous customer, I’ll smell it and order from there. 

” A little confused, the owner walks over to the dirty dish pile and picks up a greasy fork. He returns to the blind man’s table and hands it to him. The blind man puts the fork to his nose and takes in a deep breath. “Ah, yes that’s what I’ll have, meatloaf and mashed potatoes. ” 

Unbelievable, the owner says to himself as he walks towards the kitchen. The cook happens to be the owner’s wife and he tells her what had just happened. 

The blind man eats his meal and leaves. 

Several days later the blind man returns and the owner mistakingly brings him a menu again. “Sir, remember me? I’m the blind man. “I’m sorry, I didn’t recognize you. I’ll go get you a dirty fork. ”
