While she is there, she sees a vendor with customers crowded around the stall. When she asks someone what all the excitement is about, a customer informs her that a woman who sells gourmet dog treats has just arrived, and if Wanda doesn\u2019t get in line early, the woman will sell out. The customer goes on to tell Wanda that this vendor always sells out, and that since she has started buying these treats for her dogs, her dogs seem much healthier and happier. Wanda waits in line with the other customers.\r\n\r\nWhen it's Wanda\u2019s turn, she engages the woman in conversation about the ingredients in her treats and her process for making them. The woman is very nice and actually shares a recipe with Wanda for a pumpkin peanut-butter dog biscuit that has always been one of her best-selling items. Wanda purchases one of each treat from the woman and takes the recipe when it is offered to her, never mentioning that she is in the same business. She plans to \u201creverse-engineer\u201d the treats and test the new recipe out that very day.\r\n<h3>For Discussion<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Were Wanda\u2019s actions unethical?
