If you are in your Favorite store and a Demo Lady ask you to try what ever she is demoing that day,If you like It do you buy it? Just taste it to be nice? Are are you one those people who trys out all demo foods because you feel hungry at he moment.
I never eat the stuff that's from a food demo at the market. I have no clue why. I know when I go to farmers markets or craft shows and they offer tasters then I absolutely will buy.
I recently helped my friend, Jody, aka Mrs. Picky Fanicky, at the " Gotta Be NC" agriculture fair. We set up a booth and gave out thousands of samples. I know people just came to eat, but so many bought her apple peach chutney and apple pie marmalade! They're sooooo good! We game idea how to use the chutney and even told the potential customers that the marmalade heated a bit and poured over vanilla ice cream was delightfully sinful. They snagged it up..plus, her items were previous blue ribbon winners! Find the items here:

If it is the frozen creme puffs from Costco then I just eat them because I am hungry! ;D Just kidding...sort of!
In a store, if it is something I think I might like I will try it. And if I do like it, I might buy it then, but I do remember it for later.
If it is something that I know I will NEVER buy then I don't bother.
If it is a different brand of something that I was going to buy or similar to something I was going to buy and I like it then I will pick it up!
I think Demos work the best on items that are on one end of the spectrum or another. A TOTALLY different product or one that is a very common item from a brand that isn't as popular.
