At Coburg FM:
A young couple strolls through the market inspecting the produce, sometimes stopping to inquire or to purchase. They are attracted by the pink, comes closer.
Me: Hello, would you like to have a taste?
YC1: No thanks, I can’t eat gluten. (they continue their slow stroll)
Me: This IS gluten-free. (they stop in their tracks while I hand them both a sample)
YC1: Oh wow! I didn’t expect that! What is that tiny thing there?
Me: That’s the gluten-free seed called amaranth which has grain-like properties. It is a beautiful purplish plant that is revered in ancient poetry for longevity.
YC2: Nice! We’ll take a small bag please.
Me: Thank you! Come back next month for my new GF product called Coconut Caramel Crunch with Almonds.
YC1: Oh, I can’t eat nuts.
YC2: I’ll eat it!
They walk away with their new-found GF goodie.
