Default 2000 Year Old Hamburger Recipe Got HELP From 3 Store Clerks

Thanks Gordon,

I Walked into a Grocery store today.

Couldn't Find The PINE NUTS.

So I walked back to where I had Passed two Young MEN - Barely Working.

And a Pretty Woman - on her knees Shelving BONE BROTH.

Chicken and Beef.

YUCK.

So I said, "I'm Trying to Find PINE NUTS to Test a 2000 Year Old HAMBURGER
RECIPE that the Roman Empire Fed to their Soldiers. Must Be GREAT to Keep
Soldiers Happy. Do You Folks sell PINE NUTS?

The 2 College Guys Looked at each other.

Laughed and then SHRUGGED.

One said, "Aisle 5 I think."

The Older Woman - who turned out to be a Manager.

JUMPED OFF The Floor.

Said, "I Know exactly where They are. Please Come Back and TELL Me How
Your HAMBURGER Turns out."

This woman was BORED. Which I took advantage of.

And her Knees Hurt.
Cuz She quit kneeling and sat on her Butt on the floor.

But she Walked me to the Correct aisle.

HANDED me a Bag of Pine Nuts.

I Know for a Fact - Cuz I tested.

IF I hadn't Used a 2000 YEAR OLD TWIST On a Regular Hamburger to GRAB ATTENTION.

I Would Be LUCKY if I even Got a Clerk to POINT me in the Right Direction.

Thanks,
Glenn

Now I have to find a Replacement for FISH SAUCE.

And I have No Intention of Wrapping my hamburger in Pig or Cow STOMACH
before I Cook it.
