Lake Street and 3rd.

Ask for a guy named Tank and he'll introduce you to some sellers. They have Claps, Chlams and whatever you want.

As for the fruit vendors, I'm just waiting on the Snow/White Peaches.
Sounds like you know your way around.  ;D

YAX,

You didn't need to come all the way here just for this burger.

I will say this.  The oranges in the midwest are not as tasty as in Cali.  We get the freshest oranges and they're tree ripened.  The ones there were probably picked partly green and ripened on their way over because there's so little juice.

The Cara Cara oranges are supposed to be very sweet, but in the Midwest, they're kinda sour.

If you think about it, the Midwest is as far inland you can go from the coasts. Make sense that we'd get the least fresh produce and vegetables. But we've got the rest of the United States covered when it comes to corn, grains and dairy. I could offer you 10 variety of cheese and that's just from the gas station down the block from here.

No CJ's. We have the equivalent in Hardees.

But we have White Castles galore. Get the jalapeno with cheese crave case.

I never said that. I said the Midwest is the furthest you can get from either coasts, where they do grow oranges, so what we get here isn't as fresh.

But on another note, I know someone who managed to grow or at least keep an orange tree alive. He grew it in the porch area and he wraps it in the cold months. Never bore any fruit though.

Out of season possibly. These fruits we can get it year round but when it’s out of season, the taste isn’t to par or some are even bland.

Something changed between last week and this week. This week, I was told I couldn’t wear this mask in the plane anymore. The lady at the counter made a big dramatic scene out of it too. She was like “You can’t wear that mask on the plane. You have to take it off.”  That got everyone’s attention since this was probably the first time they’ve ever heard someone tell a customer to take their mask off.
