What would you do for a Klondike bar?

It's big and thick. No room for a stick.

At this stage in the interview I feel it is too early to talk about compensation.

I don't know, am I hungry for a klondike bar? That's an important factor.

Ohhh it's a choc-ice type thing. I see. Yeah I could eat one of those.

I wiki'd klondike to find out what they were, and it compared it to a choc-ice...but it seemed to think a choc-ice is on a stick...it isn't, that's a lolly. Choc ice is a block of ice-cream with a crisp chocolate coating...no stick.

I'd go back in time to 1979. It would be after dinner...maybe 8:30 on a late summer evening....just after it got dark. Me and my dad would get in the orange 240Z, and drive really fast down Greenridge Rd. blow the stop sign onto Font Rd. and then out to Rte 100. He'd get it up to maybe 80mph on the straight away before braking in time to get beck down to 35mph as we enter the small town of Eagle, Pa. Across from the Eagle Tavern is Simpson's. A General Store. Mr Simpson was prolly 100 years old back then, and just died in like 2000 or something. That store had everything from step ladders to eggs to Klondike Bars, to plungers. My dad would get plain...I always got the crispy ones. we both liked vanilla better than the chocolate.

yeah. I'd do that in a heartbeat.

I've never had a Klondike bar, so whatever it is I would have to do, obviously I haven't done it yet.

What would you do in a Klondike bar? Those places can get a little rough, eh.

I first read this as "What would you do for a Klondike Bear?" My second thought was, "I didn't realize they were endangered."

I would walk over to where someone nearby was handing out free Klondike Bars.

I would, if in the mood, walk across the street and pay about a buck for one.
