Brings New Meaning To Hot Food
(My stall gives away free home-made fire starters made of small wood chips and wax. We have many signs stating this.)
Customer: “Hi. How much are these?”
Me: “Free, ma’am. Just giving them away to anyone who wants one.”
Customer: “Oh, okay!”
(She takes a big bite out of it.)
Customer: “These are disgusting! How could you give away such gross snacks?”
Me: “These aren’t actually snacks. They’re fire starters.”
Customer: “Not snacks? Then why do they have a sugar glaze on them, smart guy?”
Me: “That’s not a glaze, ma’am. It’s wax. It helps keep the fire starter going.”
Customer: “Not a snack?”
Me: “No.”
Customer: “Then why is the glaze brown? Brown means chocolate!”
Me: “Brown is just the color of the candle we melted.”
Customer: “Not a snack?”
(At this point I called over a colleague to set up a demonstration burning in the fire-pit. The woman watches amazed.)
Customer: “They start fires and they’re snacks! Holy s***!”
