An old parsi (Iranian Jew) story:
A Jew arrives to Tabriz with an ass and a chicken and twenty rials. He is hungry and asks a passingby what to buy to eat. The Tabrizi says: Buy a melon. You eat the melon, the chicken the seeds, and the ass the rest. Wow, says the Jew, these Tabrizi people are smart, this is not a place for a Jew and left town.
