Cancer On Aisle Three

(My father and I are buying some cheap groceries as we do not have much money. We grab a pack of ramen noodles as an older woman on a wheel chair goes by.)

Woman: “You know those things cause cancer right? It takes three days to get the cancerous wax out!”

Dad: “Yeah, I’ve heard that before, but they’re very cheap.”

Woman: “Yeah, but they still cause cancer. My granddaughter loves them though! I’m forced to buy her a pack every time I come to the store!”

(At this point I realized she had a pack of noodles in her chair’s basket.)

Dad: “Well, we’ll be off now. Bye!”

Woman: “They cause cancer! Be careful!”

(She then proceeds to put two more packs into her basket….)
