Today a young lady who usually drinks chai in my home every day only drank milk.
Why? Because.....
"If I drink the chai I will get darker, blacker."
What could I say?
"So if you eat spinach you will get green? If you eat tomatoes you will get red?"
She wasn't buying my logic because you eat those particular items. So I tried another tactic.
"What about Abe's dad, what color is his coffee?"
"Black"
"And he drinks four big cups every day, is he blacker?"
No was her answer to that question but she still has decided to cut back on chai. Not only did her friend tell her this new fact about chai but a character on a soap opera stated it too.
Oh Well... my logical arguments didn't stand a chance against the "serials" (local soap operas).
