'''Salty Joe''' is a red fox who serves [[fries]] in [[Witchyworld]] in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. In order to access his stand, one must hit the switch behind it. Although he is not as disgusting as [[Big Al]], he hates guests, since they "want everything". Due to the poor conditions of Witchyworld, he is not used to customers, which makes him unsure what to say when he gives someone some fries. Also he always has to fry up more fries due to having only one customer.

'''Salty Joe''' is a character in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.


Although he's not as incompetent and un-hygenic as Big Al, the origin of his food is equally disgusting. A nearby [[Signpost|Information Signpost]] describes his fries as "a limp, greasy, tasteless alternative to a decent meal".
==Biography==
Salty Joe is a red fox and an employee of [[Witchyworld]], operating the theme park's [[fries]] stand. He dislikes costumers and avoids interacting with them, getting mad when disturbed as he is a "busy guy." While Salty Joe's stand is closed at first, the booth can be opened by pressing [[Fries Stand Switch|a switch]] behind it. Salty Joe then complains that someone found the switch and says he hates costumers, as they're "always wanting things." When first interacted with, he will offer [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] his "limp, salty fries." If they accept, Salty Joe will give them and says he'd "better start frying up some more," as he is "all out."

If Banjo goes to get fries from him alone, Salty Joe will ask the bear if he needs a sidekick, and proceed to list the moves he knows,—the "Salt Shaker Slap," the "Greasy Hand Grab" and spitting fries really far—with none of them interesting Banjo.
