I drink usually 1 diet Dr Pepper at wake up in the morning. After that I drink the non-caffeinated drinks, Sugarless A&W and Sugarless 7up. There are only 2 other beverage companies in the portfolio, PEP which is the Pepsi stock and SBUK which is Starbucks. When I asked why she said you only drink the stuff from Dr Pepper and she only drinks Pepsi. So that’s what we own. When I mentioned Starbucks as neither of will buy there. Her response was the way your sister and our daughter drink Starbucks they will never have stock issues.
Buy what you kno

Well, what is Troy smoking now?
People used to ask that based on my facebook posts...
Now they come out and sniff the air...
I mentioned the ham earlier. Yes, I know it's been smoked once.
I'm double smoking it.
And I get to break this in:
It's connected to this:
Together those are the Fireboard control center and Drive Blower G3
Temp control has been my biggest challenge with the grill. So I decided to get one of the controllers. At $349 for the package... it was pricy, but it has 6 ports for probes, and runs the fan off of rechargeable battery.
I'll let you know how it goes.

What, me worry?
Chad: I don't expect it to stick, but the white stuff is something the other half doesn't want any part of anymore. We're going to wait until late summer early fall possibly. Now with the bath remodel, money is being redirected as it should.
Reminds me: I want to know whose in the Everyone group. I was watching TV yesterday and they announced that they were going to have a review of a TV show Everyone's talking about. Never heard of the show "White Lotus" and haven't heard anyone but the TV shows saying anything about it before yesterday. So obviously I'm not in the Everyone group.

White or red?

Both! Generally the major diff is the clear Birch Beer has no caffeine, the red is high test!

I do enjoy Birch beer. And Saranac makes a good Root beer. I also enjoy a Ginger beer once in awhile
Saranac root beer is really good as a root beer float

I've discovered Cracker Barrel sells single bottles of red birch beer. It's $2.99 a bottle, so you really need to be needing a fix to get it, but it's there...

I can get a 2 liter bottle of the Pennsylvania Dutch brand at the local Food Lion for $2.75
We no longer have Food Lion here. I was able to get it at Ingles when we lived in NC.

I used to occasionally buy a white (clear) birch near by Polar in New England when I lived there.
I like standard root beer. Barqs does indeed have bite. It’s an edgier taste (from more carbonation than normal) and indeed I believe it contains or at least contained caffeine. I prefer the smoother and creamier taste of A&W and similar varieties. Most of the craft root beers are also modeled on the creamier side. But Barq’s is pretty good, especially in a float as the have cream provide the creaminess that’s missing and the bite can still push through.
Back in the early 90s the Coca Cola company, who owned Barqs, had done deals in the Soviet Union and was having troubles repatriating capital or getting paid or something. They ended up with a ton of “Soviet stuff”, various patches, pins, and Knick knacks from Soviet times. They used this in a promotion where you could send in proofs of purchase and get a Gorby tattoo and a Soviet stamp and one of these other items. I sent in twice and still have the stuff somewhere.
