Hi!

I know one in Mandarin:

Chi1 pu2tao2 tu4 pu2tao2pi2,
Bu4 chi1 pu2tao2 bu2 tu4 pu2tao2pi2.

[ts`_h= p_hU t_hao t_hU p_hU t_hao p_hI
pU ts`_h= p_hU t_hao pU t_hU p_hU t_hao p_hI]

With tones:
[ts`_h=_T p_hU_H_R t_hao_H_R t_hU_F p_hU_H_R t_hao_H_R p_hI_H_R
pU_F ts`_h=_T p_hU_H_R t_hao_H_R pU_H_R t_hU_F p_hU_H_R t_hao_H_R
p_hI_H_R]

Eat grapes - spit grape skin.
Don't eat grapes - don't spit grape skin.
