You’re not the only gourmet food shop in town, but even if you were, it wouldn’t give your staff carte blanche to be so rude to the ones I love. You’re turning your nose up at people who appreciate your stuff, people who want to try things and learn more about food. That’s not cool. —Love snacks, hate snobbery

Take the pickle out of your own ass and put it in his mouth. It’s simple: ignore the snobbery and put a big smile on your face. Make a big fuss about the shop and it’s inventory. Pull things from the shelf, giving them a good look over and put them back in the wrong place. Mess up other parts of the shelf while you’re doing that. Next, grab a basket and fill it full of the most expensive items. Once you get to the counter, make a big fuss about how lovely the shop is and how you will be coming back for even more. Then you realize that you forgot your wallet… You apologize and say that it is out in the car… You will be right back! Don’t come back.
Unfortunately OP, “gourmet” loves the company of “snobbery”. Anytime one thing is perceived better than other things… bam, you got yourself some snobbery.
Name the shop…
Relax, there are plenty of places to grab a donair in this city.
