how do you eat an elephant

One might suggest being very careful. While elephants can’t speak English, as of the writing of this letter, they still don’t seem to much care for being eaten.

One might suggest with a great deal of seasoning, the kind that would have your dietician tossing and turning all night, assuming they weren’t already incredibly anxious about all the elephant eating.

One might even go so far as to suggest throwing a party so that you have enough friends to make sure the elephant doesn’t go to waste. 

But here real wisdom departs from the traditional punchline of the joke, “one bite at a time.”

The real best way to eat an elephant is to eat something else instead.

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
