I love to eat ants on a blanket, yet I never use utensils or sit at a dining table. What am I?
A picnic
The humor stems from taking the phrase ants on a blanket literally, which refers to a popular outdoor snack involving celery, peanut butter, and raisins. Since this outdoor dining event takes place directly on the grass using a spread-out cloth, it brings people together for casual eating. This clever phrasing leads directly to the al fresco gathering.
