So, many of you Rice-like gals out there are probably wondering to yourself, “How can we find a Potato of our own?” The answer, surprisingly, is easier than you think.
One day, Potato and Rice were out running errands. They had to stop by a drugstore to pick up a few things. While hunting and gathering through the store, they passed by a well dressed Rice-like young woman who was simultaneously juggling an armful of snacks, and talking on her cell phone at the same time. Potato and Rice gave each other the “Kids these days” look.
After the hunting and gathering was done, Potato and Rice put their items on the checkout line. As soon as Potato noticed a glint of snack chips, he asked Rice to put down the “order separator” bar to make room. As soon as the bar went down, so did a mountain of snack chips. There must have been at least 10 bags of various types of chips. And in the middle of this mountain of deep fried goodness? A large bottle of soda. Yes, it did indeed belong to the young woman Potato and Rice passed in the store.
Potato : (glances at woman) “Looks like someone’s having a party”
Woman : “Oh yeah, chips and soda…only the healthiest of foods”
Potato : (looking over the mountain) “Yeah…let’s go with that…MMm…Funyuns!”
Woman : (giggling) “Really? Are they that good?”
Potato : “I like Funyuns”
Woman : “Really? Wow…maybe I should get some more”
The woman then leaves the line and goes back into the snack aisle for more Funyuns.
Later, Potato and Rice have analyze the event.
Potato : “Where do you think she was going with all those chips? “
Rice : “I don’t know… maybe she was going to a party and someone called for a chip run”
Potato : “..and soda too. Why wouldn’t they just get a couple of large bags?” (pauses) “Is getting all those chips her way of making sure everyone gets what they want?”
Rice : “That does sound like my people”
Potato : (chuckling – Potato always chuckles when he has something clever up his sleeve ---) “Maybe she wanted to see what would attract a Potato”
Rice : “And you did influence her decision to get more Funyuns”
Potato : (enthusiastic chuckling) “Yeah, like she’s going to go out and start sprinkling Funyuns out on her lawn to see who shows up”
Rice : “Like you?”
Potato : (innocent look)
To this day, Potato comes home and has this sad puppy dog look on his face and says “Awww…no Funyuns on the lawn.”
Rice just sighs.
