Yesterday, I went to the convenience store to purchase a snack to watch with my recently downloaded torrent of Castlevania Season 3. The cashier in the convenience store, a black woman, loudly remarks, "mmm, that doughnut be lookin' real good." I immediately felt ashamed, and even considered throwing the doughnut away right in front of her, but instead I took my bag and went home. The next day, I forgot about the encounter. I went to the same convenience store and I purchased a bag of doritos to watch while playing the new Zelda, and sure enough, it was the same black woman. She rings up the doritos and goes, "mmmm, that would be real good right now, I'm gonna buy me one of these when I get off." I was standing there cringing while her remarks were causing a multitude of people behind me to judge my purchases. I took the bag of doritos and went home feeling totally humiliated.

I find it uncomfortable that she is remarking on my purchases, judging my shopping habits and making me feel like I was doing something wrong, or indulging myself. I stopped going to the convenience store all together after her remarks. I don't want this woman who doesn't even know me telling me what I should and shouldn't be buying, and making me feel ashamed of myself.

I expect a certain detachment in the transaction, rather than a court hearing about the items that I'm purchasing.

Everybody likes a doughnut or a bag of doritos, I don't understand why she had to voice her opinion about it so that everyone in the convenience store could hear. It is frankly insulting to my privacy. I have never had this happen before. How normal is it for convenience store women to remark on the things you're purchasing?
