Earlier this summer we were out hiking the Winner Creek Trail. We went across the hand tram, and then stopped for a little break after Rob and DJ Valentine had exhausted themselves pulling several cars of people across the gorge.
DJ Valentine was enjoying a beef jerky snack, when a young man took an interest in it. He was standing on the platform right near DJ Valentine on the stairs, watching him eat.
YM: "Beef jerky sure is good, isn't it?"
DJ: (Looks at YM a little quizzically.) "Yep. Do you want some?"
YM: (Looks back at his family, and then back at DJ.) "Yeah, thanks."
YM then proceeded to very carefully eat his beef jerky while keeping it hidden from his sister and parents behind him. He obviously really wanted the jerky, yet also realized that generally one does not take random food from people you meet on the hiking trail.
