WHITE SUGAR

Before retiring in 2001, I enjoyed 25 years of selling a product called World's Finest Chocolate to Schools, Churches, and non-profit organizations for fund-raising.  The chocolate is a high quality product, and provides the schools, etc. with 50% profit after the sale.  It has been highly accepted since 1945, all over the United States.   My territory consisted of 19 Parishes in south Louisiana, with over 900 schools as potential customers.

A huge school in New Orleans had a very active P T A, and this group made the sale a big success every year.  

An interesting thing happened at the start of this particular sale, when I was making a call to offer the product to the school.  The PTA president was a very large black lady,  and very friendly.  When she first spotted me on the top of a tall group of steps entering the school front door, she jumped from her car and rang out in a loud voice, "WAIT, MISTUH GENE, I WANT SOME OF THAT WHITE SUGAR!".

She literally ran up all the steps and gave me a big hug!
