It's called an anti-joke and I found it funny. It was obviously set up that way by the poster.

Nah turns out its actually a very smart joke, see Blue_Morpho's reply and my follow up.

Anti jokes are capable of being smart. Lmao

Usually anti jokes are funny due to a lack of punchline, but this joke does actually have a functioning punchline and subversion of expectation. It just doesnt work as well if you dont get that the almond bit is about poison.
