“If you cut a minute steak into 60 pieces then everyone can have seconds”

“Minute steak” has been the subject of several puns. This was posted on Twitter by Ayn Randy on December 7, 2018:
   
“If you cut a minute steak into 60 pieces then everyone can have seconds.”
   
The joke is that “seconds” also means “additional servings.” There are 60 seconds in a minute.
     
       
Wikipedia: Cube steak 
In Ireland, Canada, Australia, and some parts of the United States, cube steak may be called a minute steak, because it can be cooked quickly.
 
Minute steak may also be distinguished by:
 
. simply referring to the cut, which is not necessarily tenderized;
. thinner than cube steak (hence does not need tenderizing);
. cut from sirloin or round, while cube steak cut is from chuck or round.
 
The term minute steak is also used in the United Kingdom, where the term cube steak is little known.

The joke here is that there are sixty seconds in a minute, and seconds are also an additional serving of food.
