Default Funny LC story

I was at Trader Joe's and asked the check out guy if he knew anything about their new LC beers. I'm not a huge beer drinker, but I like one every now and then, I am just picky and can't stand the other LC beers.

Anyhoo, he said he hadn't tried one, but he didn't think they would be very good. He said, "I think it would be too flat." ???
It took me a second to figure out why it would be flat, and then I realized, he thought Low-Carb meant low carbONATION!!!!

I had to struggle too keep from laughing, and by the look on FI's face, he was thinking the same thing!
As soon as we got to the car we busted up! I know not everyone is as schooled as we are on LC diets, but he must live in a hole if he hasn't even HEARD of them!!

Only if we have a widespread stomach flu outbreak and then only for a short while.
Flat beer? I dunno...I'm not a huge fan of it even with the carbonation..don't think I'd even bother to drink it without it.
