Whether you are a five-year-old or a 35-year-old, there is something exciting about standing at a grocery store with a colourful display of glossy potato chips packets in a variety of flavours to choose from. Potato chips are versatile and sometimes there are so many flavour options within a single brand. If you do not have a favourite chips flavour in particular, you are likely to feel confused while deciding which one to buy. We can understand that. However, it looks like the owner of a particular ‘Sharma General Store’ is not very fond of this customer behaviour.
The post went viral on Reddit, gaining 17, 000 upvotes. Many people jumped to the comments section with fun remarks on a customer’s dilemma in choosing a packet of chips from all the delicious options.
A hilarious signboard from a grocery store has gone viral on the internet. Shared on Reddit by user Nishant Tripathi, the picture shows a chips display rack, stocked with a variety of Lay’s Chips — India’s Magic Masala, Classic Salted, American Style Cream And Onion and West Indies’ Hot ‘n’ Sweet Chilli. Above the chips rack is a big signboard that reads, “Dukaan par khade hoke ‘konsa lays lu’ sochna mana hai. Kripya apne ghar se soch ke aaye– Sharma General Store [It is prohibited to stand at the store and wonder ‘Which Lay’s flavour should I buy’. Kindly decide from your home before coming to the store].”
“I can’t Sharma ji, it’s not that easy,” a Redditor commented. Another said, “Ghar se sochke jane ke baad bhi jab waha pe itne saare option dikhte hai to confuse hi ho jate hai [Even if we decide from home, we get confused after seeing so many options at the store].”
One joked, “This is pressurizing customers to make quick wrong decisions.” Talking about their confusion in choosing a packet of Lay’s, one wrote, “I am always confused between blue, light green and dark green.”
“I can confidently say that I’ve spent more time picking a lays flavour than I did picking my career,” a Redditor quipped.
