When I said "powdered apple" the cashier tried to convince me I was looking for dried apples or freeze-dried apples. When I finally convinced her that it was "powdered" that I was looking for, she called over to Colin working the shelves and asked him to show me the powdered drink that was flavored with apples. Colin, in all his healthy, clear-eyed eagerness, handed me a protein-type powdered drink that had apples, broccoli, carrots, kale, spinach, spirulina, beets and turmeric.
I handed it back to him and said: "I'm really just looking for powdered apples. It's going to be used on pork chops."
The look on his face was priceless. He left me and walked over to the cashier and said, with...something in his voice..."it's for pork chops."
Now...to get the full effect, replace the words PORK CHOPS with "DEEP-FRIED CUDDLY KITTENS" to experience the mood change that happened at that moment.
I'm pretty sure I've just been put on their perpetual black list.
