"I was watching a TV show about the advent of the hot dog. The gentleman who came up with the solution was selling just the sausages to his customers, but he had to sell them gloves too in order to prevent their hands from getting greasy. But the gloves were expensive, and he was losing money. So the bun became a cost-effective solution. This was a perfect way to teach them about business and economics and how the bun came out of economic necessity. So, I posed the problem to the kids and asked them how they would fix the problem of losing money on the gloves."
