Assuming your personal philosophy of life includes stopping at every neighborhood lemonade stand (it does, right?), imagine this scene instead. You’re driving home and see two kids waving handmade signs. You pull over, rummaging for loose change and wondering whether these budding entrepreneurs lean more toward the sugary or watery side of the classic lemonade ratio.
When you walk up, a blonde boy about 7 years old flashes his hopeful blue eyes and says, “Would you like some frozen pickle juice?” You pause, just now noticing the sign in his hand reads P-I-C-K-L-E J-U-I-C-E in carefully glued construction paper letters. “They’re only 25 cents!” his younger brother says. Instead of plastic cups, the bright-green liquid sits in two-ounce servings on the table and the boys smile up at you expectantly.
You smile at their mom behind them, knowing she probably promised they could put today’s profits toward that Thor or Black Panther action figure they saw at the store. Could you refuse?
