    Like 4/5ths of the average American diet used to be canned or frozen, so I kind of don’t agree.

    Fun Fact, the heir to the Swanson brand is Tucker Carlson, a Fox News show host so bad that his false statements have gotten the network sued on multiple occasions and the defense was that his statements fall under fair use due to being so absurd that no reasonable person would believe them. He actually started the Hydroxychloroquine trend during the pandemic by bringing on a non-doctor to promote the drug with a fake study.

    Millions if not billions of dollars were wasted on the drugs distribution and more and more studies when it was effectively useless or in many cases harmful.

    Sorry. Went a bit off topic there just now, lol.









  • FR, the lines on the top machine get hooked up to a metering pump whose intakes are

    A. Bag of “Soda” syrup which comes in a box

    B. Air Tank of Carbonation

    C. Water

    The outlet hoses themselves are transparent so a lot of serious issues would be noticed and rectified, but in general stores don’t implement proper protocol to clean or change them out regularly. There is actually a couple of bacterial strains found almost exclusively in the lines, I’ve had the priviledge to examine them in person. They’re rarely very harmful but it’s kind of neat.

    The actual machine people see usually only houses the refrigeration unit with the pumps and bags and tank on the other side of a wall or hidden under a counter.
