Special Sauce

A lady was preparing a pasta dish for a dinner party she was giving. In her haste, however, she forgot to refrigerate the spaghetti sauce, and it sat on the counter all day. She was worried about spoilage, but it was too late to cook up another batch.

She called the local Poison Control Center and voiced her concern. They advised her to just boil the sauce again and it should be fine.

That night, the phone rang during dinner, and one of the guests volunteered to answer it. The hostess’ face dropped as the guest called out, "It’s the Poison Control Center. They want to know how the spaghetti sauce turned out."
