Polish Joke

Cauliflower polonaise (riverford)
A real text: "Please do not put any Chopin the dishwasher."

(Yes, I know she meant "chopsticks in the dishwasher.")

A text reply that I didn't send: "But they had polonaise sauce on them."

I know that once you explain a mild joke the humor is drained away, but here goes: his Polonais(es) are some of the most famous pieces in classical music, so the juxtaposition of dishwasher and Chopin was an opportunity not to be lost. Like I said, drained away.
