Consider how a great meal can define a whole travel memory.

My buddy had the same thing happen with his lineman pliers. He swore by his old pair for years. Then he borrowed a newer style with the angled head and cushioned grips on a long underground pull. He said it felt like he was working with half the effort, especially in tight boxes. He bought a pair that weekend and won't shut up about them now. What's the oldest tool you've upgraded that made you kick yourself for not doing it sooner?

Wait, you can just... buy coal with too much sulfur in it? That's wild.
