Ever since I read a couple of books on the history of candy bars in the United States, I’ve been trying to figure out a way to sell regional treats so that Angelenos can get a steady source for Valomilk and Charleston Chews and Goo Goo Clusters. I thought I might get a little vehicle and drive around or set up retrofitted vintage cigarette machines in local knick knack shops, but neither of those options seem commercially viable at the moment. I still really want to do it, though, especially since I found my perfect seller’s uniform:
Look. Seriously.
Maybe I could turn this into some sort of long-term performance art project. Anybody know a good grant writer?
Oh god, how often do you go to Galco’s???
Mr. Galco is such a crank that I try not to go there, but I have to admit he has a pretty good selection of candy.
