I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned my dad’s glorious candy drawer on more than one occasion here at whoorl. Earlier this week, I received the greatest honor imaginable when my father asked me to accompany him on a candy-drawer-stocking expedition to the grocery store. I jumped at the chance to learn proper candy-stocking skills from the master. How does he do it? Are his purchases off the cuff or does he employ a systematic thought process? THE QUESTIONS.
A thought crossed my mind. I bet 6 of my readers would find a documentary completely riveting!
This video is for you, 6 people of the world.
Warning: This is 4 minutes and 55 seconds of your life that you will NEVER get back. Think about it.

I especially enjoyed the typed captions reinforcing his points.

June 19, 2009 at 10:12 amHappy Father’s Day to the Bishop. Would this be a bad (but bad in a good way) time to disclose that I work in the confectionery/candy industry? ;)

June 19, 2009 at 11:14 amMy five year old just said “This whole movie is about buying candy?” Then he laughed uncontrollably for a good 3 minutes. Then wanted to watch it again.

June 19, 2009 at 11:37 amMy kids were drawn to this like moths to a flame. They were sitting on my lap asking me all sorts of questions. Who is that? Who is that candy for? and the like.

June 19, 2009 at 12:03 pmI love it. Will never have to wander the candy aisle at Target in a state of dazed confusion again. You (and your dad (and your dad’s adorable glasses)) rock.
