Boudreaux’s had no car and his wife Clotile wanted to go into Baton Rouge for some shopping. Her granddaughter suggested she take an Uber and installed the Uber app on her cell phone.
The Uber driver picks Clotile up in front of her home in Church Point, Louisiana and about ten minutes into the trip Clotile hands the driver a handful of peanuts. “Y’ont sum?” she asked the young driver.
He thanks her and begins to eat the nuts. Several minutes go by and noticing he had run out of peanuts, Clotile reaches over the seat and gives him some more. This happened a couple of more times with the driver thanking Clotile each time.
Seeing he had run yet again, Clotile reaches over the seat with another handful of peanuts. The driver said, “Oh, no ‘mam, thank you, but I’ve had my fill of nuts for one day. Why don’t you eat them?”
Clotile responded, “Oh I can’t, ya see, look at me young man. I don’t have any teeth.” The driver asked, “Then why do you buy the peanuts?”
Clotile answered, “I buys ’em ’cause I just luv suckin’ dat chocolate coatin’ off dem.”
