What the cute girl selling alfajores at the Metro station's exit doesn't know is that the boy who passes by every day and says "No, thanks" with a smile will never be able to buy an alfajor from her because since he was a kid chocolate gave him migraines and it's been more than ten years since he's eaten chocolate and he'd rather sacrifice chocolate and all that chocolate could bring in exchange for the quasi-certainty that he will never again have a horrible migraine.
