I don’t like long food interviews. Subway, in my opinion, has a bad food interview. There are too many questions. The ability to control the outcome of the sandwich might be welcomed by the picky eaters out there, but for me, it’s just annoying. It isn’t that I can’t decide, it’s just that I don’t care. In contrast, Quizno’s has a terrific food interview that is done in seconds.
Anyway, since I don’t have any artwork to post, I decided to delight the readers with the next best thing: An example of a bad food interview. This happened just moments ago!
JJ: Hey, darling. What can I get for you, honey?
Mike: Can I get a large hot chocolate?
JJ: Yes you may get a large hot chocolate. What kind of milk do you want?
Mike: 2% is fine.
JJ: And what kind of chocolate do you want?
Mike: Wha-?
JJ: Do you want Hershey’s or Ghirardelli’s?
Mike: Oh, I don’t care. What do they usually use?
JJ: (silence)
Mike: Ghirardelli’s, I guess.
JJ: OK. Do you want whip cream?
Mike: That would be great.
JJ: Greatness is what we are striving for! (laughs)
Mike: (Silence)
JJ: Do you want it hot hot or just drinkable hot?
Mike: Drinkable hot is fine. Oh, and can I get a banana muffin?
JJ: Yes you may get a banana muffin. Now would you mind taking a sip of the hot chocolate to make sure it is ok?
(Mike sips)
Mike: BAH! THIS IS GARBAGE! YOU ARE GARBAGE!
(Mike splashes the hot chocolate in the barsita’s face)
(Barista screams and wails in agony)
Mike: You’re lucky it is only “drinkable hot!”
OK, everything after (Mike Sips) didn’t really happen. But it sort of embodies the effect a bad food interview can have on me.
The end.
