Bonus For All My Friends
The wonders of the English language:
A while ago, a farmer walked through a pork processing plant in Oklahoma with a friend who managed it. He came across boxes stacked on the floor with labels that said “artificial calamari.” So he asked his friend “What’s artificial calamari?” “Bung,” his friend replied. “Hog rectum.” Have you or I eaten bung dressed up as seafood? Ben investigated.

I mean, it’s what they do.
I could have sworn they had a little operation near us but couldn’t quite make sense of their global footprint. But, yeah, I only know of them in regards to mountain bikes. Canyon, on the other hand, has the opposite of a marketing problem and pretty diverse offerings. At any rate, not a whole lot of companies selling direct like that.
The extenuating circumstances are that he’s a piece of shit.
*Biggest Direct To Consumer brands.
I only know about YT because my Orange County neighbors sing their praises.
Aside from Canyon, there’s not a lot else on the list who distribute this way to even compare.
Yeah, no one’s buying this. These are sadistic thugs who’ve had ample opportunity to learn the history of Hitler’s brown shirts and went ahead and signed on the dotted line anyhow.
Nothing seems far fetched anymore. It’s only the commitment to total devastation that gets him chickening out.
They’re family-run operations, proudly owned by generations of Latinos, in many local cases. You’re talking full-on internment camps if they’re to forcibly remove these legal citizens from their businesses. I’m not saying that isn’t in the works but these aren’t only field workers vulnerable to being terrorized. There’s a vast co-op network they pull resources from. If trump is going to truly go after all production, food will cease to be available. We will see economic destruction that will make the Great Depression pale in comparison.
Learning to eat what’s seasonal is a great way to understand world cuisines better. It’s advantageous when traveling…
Depends on the region. I can find about 5 on Victoria Avenue in Riverside, California alone. Farm stands are everywhere under our noses in this state and we can wind up overlooking these amenities.
In LA, back in the day, I would have been going to farmer’s markets more, which are a bit more work because they have limited schedules. Still, there are brilliant places like Super King there, that have a lot of value for the money. I also miss other specialties there like sushi-grade fish mongers, etc. There are quite a lot of options in Southern California and beyond such as Latino supermarket chains like Vallartas, Cardena’s and Northgate/Gonzalez Bros as well as Asian options like 99 Ranch Market.

Buy local, folks. I got far higher quality tomatoes at a farm stand the other day than I can find at any big box store in the US. The prices can’t be beat.
Good to know. Archive.is is failing here.
One of the only things he’s ever said that (almost) makes sense but he sure doesn’t understand the concept of using all the tools in his toolbox.
The dude’s really wearing an ascot with a straight face like that, isn’t he?
And then it gets awesome. Eventually, their bodies fuse together and they form a multi-headed live dildo king and we saw one.
