"I have never had such lack in faith of humanity as I have tonight...

A woman and her little girl were coming through my line at work today, along with another family pairing... the little girl had a big bag (32oz) of m&m's in her hands and was looking around the isle for who knows what. Her mother was distracted talking to the other pairings mother who's son was putting her groceries in her cart.

When I started to ring up the mother/daughters groceries up, she looked at her little girl and asked her for her candy so That I could ring it up for her. The little girl put her m&m's away on a shelf, and grabbed a small squeeze thing of applesauce and said "No mama, I want this instead." and she handed her mother the applesauce...

Her mother looked at it like she'd never seen something before. and said "What the hell is this? Applesauce? Eww. I'm not getting you applesauce." and so she puts the bottle back on the shelf and grabs the bag of m&m's and hands to me to ring up...

I almost didn't ring up them because, well for starters... Applesauce is a much better snack/treat than m&m's. The bag of m&ms was about 3 dollars, while the applesauce was 75 cents I think. and if those didn't mean much to you, the woman denied her little girls right of choice... A HEALTHY choice, mind you..."
