One day Akbar and Birbal were riding through the countryside and they happened to pass by a cabbage patch.<br><br>
"Cabbages are such delightful vegetables!" said Akbar. "I just love cabbage."<br><br>
"The cabbage is king of vegetables!" said Birbal.<br><br>
A few weeks later they were riding past the cabbage patch again. <br><br>
This time however, the emperor made a face when he saw the vegetables. "I used to love cabbage but now I have no taste for it." said Akbar.<br><br>
"The cabbage is a tasteless vegetable" agreed Birbal.<br><br>
The emperor was astonished.<br><br>
"But the last time you said it was the king of vegetables!" he said.<br><br>
"I did," admitted Birbal. "But I am your servant Your Majesty, not the cabbage's."<br><br>
