Sweet! ;)
(Tasted this before, but the flavor was so so clearly experienced I'd
forgotten the context of the first taste. Thanks for the second helping Joe)

Mike,
A woman called on Gandhi at his home, with her little son in tow.
They were admitted inside, met the Mahatma, and were invited to sit on
the floor with him.
The woman said:
"Mahatma, please tell my son to stop eating sugar. He is always eating
sugar! We cannot afford it. Please tell him to STOP!!"
Mahatma: "Dear Lady, please take your son home, and come back to me in
three days with him."
The lady was ruffled, astonished. But she got up and left with her son.
She came three days later with her son, and again they were brought
into the room where Gandhi sat spinning cotton on the floor. Gandhi
asked them to sit down.
Woman: "Mahatma, will you tell my son to please stop eating sugar?!"
Mahatma: "Boy!, obey your mother! Stop eating sugar."
Woman: "Mahatma, why could you not tell him this THREE DAYS ago? Why
did you have us come all this way back, today?!"
Mahatma: "Because, dear Lady, three days ago *I* had not stopped
eating sugar."
