And I Can Cook, Too

Feb. 19, 2006
I am discouraged by the following conversation, which took place at R. Fields, the only gourmet food store on Oahu:

Me: Can you tell me why this tin of caviar is discounted?

First Sales Person: Um, no. I don’t know.

Me: Can you tell me why this tin of caviar is discounted?

Second Sales Person: Um, no, not really. Maybe it’s close to its expiration date. But if we’re selling it, it isn’t expired.

Me: Can you tell me anything about this tin of caviar?

Second Sales Person: Like what?

Me: Well, what color are the eggs?

Second Sales Person: I’m not really sure. Maybe pink?
