Sample Zombies are the mindless creatures that derive their primary sustenance from
free food samples in stores.
Generally, they are harmless to bystanders as their primary focus is the free food. But
occasionally, when herded together, they can emit noxious gas and block aisle ways - causing disruption to folks who are actually there to shop.
A sense of horror rushed over me when I
realized I was shopping in Costco at lunch time. Droves of sample zombies converged to feast on the free offerings, clogging the aisles as they devoured samples as fast as they came out of
the toaster ovens. I raced for the safe zone where samples of salad were being dispensed. Much like
vampires fear garlic, sample zombies avoid anything with fiber.
