This Customer Should Try Peanuts As Her Blood Pressure Is Through The Roof
I am giving out samples of homemade peanut butter in a grocery store.
Me: “Good morning, ma’am. Please try some fresh home-made peanut butter!”
Customer: *With disgust* “Ugh, peanut butter has so much cholesterol in it!”
Me: *Pleasantly* “I’m sorry, but peanut butter doesn’t have any cholesterol in it.”
Customer: *Clearly offended* “What do you mean?!”
Me: “Well, cholesterol is a molecule found in the cell membranes of animals to help keep it more rigid. Plants, such as peanuts, have a sturdy cell wall protecting it; they have no need for cholesterol.”
The customer seems to get angry that I clearly know what I’m talking about and she doesn’t.
Customer: “Well! Peanuts have lots of fat, then!”
Me: “Yes, ma’am, they do have fat.”
The customer left. I sighed.
