Reminds me of an incident years ago - I was in a grocery store picking up a few things, and saw an east indian woman in the bulk food section scooping out cherry pie filling with her bare hands from a big plastic barrel and eating it.
As I stood there hardly believing what I saw, a store employee walked over to her and told her the store didn't allow that - and he handed her a plastic ladle. She promptly filled the ladle with more liquid pie filling and raised it to her mouth to continue eating.
I was laughing so hard I think customers halfway across the store could hear me. I turned around and walked right outta the store without buying a thing. Never set foot in the place again after that.
