SATURDAY EVENING @ GROCERY STORE
Me: I don’t know what to get for a snack. NOTHING looks good. [Poor, poor me]
Barry: Just get the Idaho Spud. [As if it were the most logical choice]
Me: Yeah, I think the Spud is the way to go. Look, this is the candy bar that made Idaho famous. [Is Idaho really famous?]
WEDNESDAY MORNING
Barry: When are you going to eat your Spud?
Me: Hands off the Spud! I’ll eat it when I’m ready. [I proceed to worry about my Spud all day at work while Barry works from home. Spud survives the work day.]
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
Me: Spud is a dud. So gross. [Such a let down]
Barry: Oh, you are right, that is not good.
Moral of the story: Stay away from the Spud that made Idaho famous.
