Someone I met today profiled me.
I was at Trader Joe's buying a plethora of snacks that my parents requested. While I was ringing out, the cashier and I struck up a conversation.
"So when's your flight?"
"Not till tomorrow."
Pause.
"How'd you know I was going to be on a flight?"
"All the Hawaii people tend to buy the same kinds of snacks in bulk. Is it because you can't get them there?"
I chuckled and shared that some of the snacks and produce I was buying aren't things that are easily available. For some products, the versions at home don't taste nearly as good.
