Sharing Cookies

While waiting at the airport terminal for her plane to begin boarding, a woman sat reading a newspaper. Earlier, she had purchased a package of cookies in the airport snack shop to eat after she got on the plane. After a while she noticed that the man sitting next to her was eating a cookie. She looked down and noticed that her package of cookies had been opened and the man was eating them.

The woman couldn't believe that the man would have such nerve as to eat her cookies. So that she wouldn't lose all her cookies to the man, she slowly reached over, took a cookie and ate one herself. To her amazement, the man continued to eat more cookies. Getting more and more irritated, the woman removed all but left one cookie.

At that point, the man reached down and took the last cookie. Before eating it though, he broke it in half and left half of the cookie for the woman. This made the woman so angry, she grabbed the empty package with the half cookie and crammed it in her purse. Then, to her shock, she noticed that in her purse was her unopened package of cookies.
