    The team found CBD in the fruits and flowers of a plant known as Trema micrantha blume, a shrub which grows across much of the South American country and is often considered a weed, molecular biologist Rodrigo Moura Neto of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro told AFP last year.

            It’s not what it used to be. They’re trying to sell pizzas and burgers now. And hoagiefest hoagies are now $6.

              I left their area not long after the pizza started. Didn’t know they added burgers. I primarily miss the iced coffee and egg and pork roll breakfast sandwiches.

                Sizzlis are one of the best breakfast foods ever. Sausage egg and cheese on a bagel!
