“What do you call a particularly shitty vegetable?”/“Pro-deuce.”

“Produce” sounds like “pro-deuce,” and a pun is:
 
“Fruits and vegetables prevent constipation. That’s why they call it pro-deuce.”
 
“Deuce” means “number two” (defecation). “Fruits and vegetables can help keep you regular. Pro-deuce! #PoopJoke” was posted on Twitter on May 1, 2013. “TIL that fruits and vegetables can help prevent constipation. I guess that’s why they call it pro-deuce” was posted on Reddit—Puns on September 4, 2017.

Wikipedia: Produce
Produce is a generalized term for many farm-produced crops, including fruits and vegetables (grains, oats, etc. are also sometimes considered produce). More specifically, the term produce often implies that the products are fresh and generally in the same state as where and when they were harvested.
 
In supermarkets, the term is also used to refer to the section of the store where fruit and vegetables are kept.

Did you know: Fruit and vegetables are packed with fiber and that’s why they call it “pro-deuce.”
