I could not help but think of you today. One of my customers is this older (not that you are necessarily older) greek guy. He owns a sports bar and does alot of fairs and events with his Gyro Truck.

Anyway I took him a sample of a new garlic butter sauce for some pasta dishes he wanted to do. My sample was a whole gallon. I told him I was going to leave him with half and sample the rest to other people. Holy Hell, bad choice of words. He came down on me like a ton of bricks "Goddamn it your not showing that product to anyone else you fu*&er, that's going to be my new secret ingredient. You son of b&#ch!". " I should have called your competitor you dirty ba&^ard!".

I had to calm him down, promissed I would not show anyone else, but made him promise to only buy it from me. By the time I left he was making me lunch. The guy is a little hot head, but loyal to a fault and a great customer.
 
Perhaps in the right situation in the future I'll lay it on him and look for his reaction.

And your story was great. :D
