I tried to DQ something different, but The Man kept me down
Dear Dairy Queen International Headquarters,
I had been craving a Peanut Buster Parfait all week long (call it hormones), and finally talked my boyfriend into coming to DQ with me. When we got to the drive-in, I was sadly informed that there was no hot fudge, erego, no PB Parfait. When we asked why there might not be any, we were told that "Dairy Queen headquarters ran out". If that is in fact true, I have to wonder: did Dairy Queen do something to somehow tick off the global fudge market? How the heck does an ice cream store run out of hot fudge? How can there be no fudge-related contingency plan?
Needless to say, I am extremely disappointed that my craving must go unsated. I am thinking of switching my allegiences from DQ to Ben and Jerry's and a microwaved jar of Smucker's fudge. I would, however, be willing to let you persuade me not to go that route.
I look forward to hearing your reply.
Sincerely,
Saedigh
