AggieDave 6 #1 July 27, 2004 A story about a women with an eating problem and a sammich, it was love at first bite. Oprah, in her constant battle with fat and fat reduction surgery, decided that a sammich she had was soooo good that she invested in the cafe to keep it open. http://www.click2houston.com/food/3581866/detail.html QuoteSandwich Prompts Oprah To Invest POSTED: 9:32 am EDT July 27, 2004 UPDATED: 9:46 am EDT July 27, 2004 SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. -- Oprah Winfrey has offered to invest in a California cafe to help keep the place open. She was apparently overwhelmed by a chicken curry sandwich that came from there. Winfrey says it's the most expensive sandwich she ever had. Twenty-four hours after she ate the sandwich she sent the owner of San Luis Obispo's Art Cafe and Bakery a check. The two had never met, and Winfrey hadn't even seen the cafe. The sandwich had been delivered when Winfrey was in the city a few weeks ago. She sent the check after finding out the owner was planning to close the place. Copyright 2004 by The Associated Press.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. --Douglas Adams Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
