When the number of sausages don't match the number of buns.
What I really don't understand is why they haven't taken it the logical next steps.

1. Add cheese slices to the mix. 8 buns plus 12 dogs plus 14 cheese slices means they have to buy enough for 168 complete dogs.

2. Use prime numbers. 7 dogs , 11 buns and 13 cheeses means they have to buy enough for 1,001.
