**You say 'tomato', I say 'divorce'**

**Al-AHSA: Here is another story from the annals of wacky Saudi divorces. A security guard in Al-Ahsa divorced his 28-year-old wife because she demanded that he buy her two boxes of tomatoes for cooking every week, a local daily reported on Monday.**
Perhaps it was the high price of produce or his own personal distaste for tomatoes but the man refused her demands. And when, for the second time in a week, he caught her at the local vegetable market buying tomatoes, he slapped her in front of passersby.
Ashamed and infuriated, the woman declared that she did not want to live with such a cruel husband. He granted her her wish and divorced her on the spot.

Re: Ladies, thank your lord that you can marry a pakistani man.
I am really surprised no one is paying attention to how be-ghairat that woman was. He caught her 2 times. Guy had no choice but to leave her.
for the second time in a week, he caught her at the local vegetable market buying tomatoes,

Who is implying that its funny. Just because you are discussing a serious topic in a lighter manner does not mean that you are not taking it seriously.
Re: Ladies, thank your lord that you can marry a pakistani man.
JUST when I thought I've heard ALL possible reasons for a divorce........

The only thing keeping the Saudis from the stone age is their oil. Wahhabism is a plague.
