“My wife thinks I’m crazy because I like sausages” (joke)

A sausages joke has been cited in print since at least 1978:
 
Patient: Doctor, my wife thinks I’m crazy because I like sausages.
Psychiatrist: Nonsense! I like sausages too.
Patient: Good, you should come and see my collection. I’ve got hundreds of them.
