Frito-Lay which Pepsi owns had a pretty nasty workman's comp case out here in <a href="https://stlouist.social/tags/STL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>STL</span></a> a few years ago, haven't bought any of their stuff since. As for soda, I prefer RC or Doctor Pepper, though I will occasionally buy Mountain Dew if't they have an interesting new flavor, but that means one twelve pack every few months at best, often just a single 20oz bottle.</p>
SpaceLifeForm<p>So, the cold front finally pushed south and cooled things off nicely. Overcast, gray skies. Looks like it may rain. Nope, it is wildfire smoke from Canada.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/WX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WX</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/STL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>STL</span></a></p>

Taurnsndhaus Admin<p>When my husband passed at work, he'd had some refrigerated food with him in a tote, and while they'd thrown it in the fridge, it'd been in the car for a half hour or more, and then who knows how long it'd sat before being thrown in the fridge, so I decided to give it to the animals.
