Grossing out food pushers

The last two days have been crazy with a lovely couple we were doing a job for trying to cram junk in our mouths! So... I got to thinking about how to quickly put people off by being a little gross in my responses to their sweet offerings.
Now I know that a little treat once in awhile won't kill us, but this was nuts and these are the things that I do think about. ( And people wonder why I'm always smiling.)

    It's totally not true, but guessing people's expressions might be great!

    How about just mentioning, that you're severely allergic?

    Might work, except I can't lie to save my life. I may not blow up like a balloon in the way they would assume I mean it, but fat is puffy right? I can pull off that little tale. It may make them walk away without asking too many questions.

    How about wearing, an obviously tight dress & mention that you're afraid that, you'll split a seam?

    LOL dresses and tree work don't seem to go together. Safe words are good in that case!

    Lol! No nuts and no foursome. Pies, cookies, and doughnuts. But these people were relentless! We have a tree service and sometimes people can be well meaning, but overbearing. I try to be nice, but inside, I am thinking of all kinds of things I can say. And people wonder why I smile all the time.

    Well I'm stumped. A tree service you say? Maybe they see how chipper you are all the time and how well you handle wood and figure you need a mouth full.

    I did get asked why I was smiling by the guy today. If he only knew I was thinking of things I could say to gross him out! He got a typical woman reply. Oh nothing.

    Lovely couple
    Doing a job
    Cramming junk in our mouths

    Connect the dots.

    Let's not forget sweet offerings and nuts!

    You know what would make those offerings sweeter??

    Pineapples!

    Let me write that down, do you have a pen?

    My tampon!

    Tell them you don't want their food because you don't like them as a person. ;)

    My p[eeve in life is people who won't take NO for an answer. After about the 3rd time of a nice, "No thanks!" I get rude. That usually offends but hey. It will be okay!
