I answered a call bell to a passenger who was filling in his US customs form and it went something like this;
Me; How can I help you sir?
Pax: Is cheese food?
At this point I thought I misheard and continued to help the guy.
Me; Do you eat it?
Pax; Yes
Me; (smiling sweetly) then it's food. Is there anything else I can help you with?
Pax; No thank you
Then I just walked away.
I had to go back to the galley and relay the story to the rest of the crew, I just had to make sure that cheese was not used for anything else
