They are being sold at Skyline stores.
Have you checked Kroger? We have it at Kroger in Nashville. Though Kroger is still the worst.
Release date isnāt until Monday, Iāll definitely be trying then!
The only times Iāve seen Graeterās at Kroger, it was just two of three core flavors. Was happy to be able to get it, but the selection has never been more than that.
We also have a local ice cream maker that is one of the best in the country, so on the semi-rare occasion I want non soft serve ice cream, we usually just go there instead of getting some at the store
If you find some, and youāre still planning to come to the Fropen, could you bring me a pint?

I just wanted to parachute in to say definitively that Lima is not in SW Ohio.

I sat next to these Phillies fans last year and they had contorted the pronunciation of Gondola to rhyme with Aaron Nola - it was hilarious to hear them try to explain it to people all game.

This story about private equity fucking up the fire truck industry and the down stream effects itās had is a must read

Iām glad this is finally getting some play.
I canāt speak for LA specifically but the delays for any kind of new engine/ladder/ambulance get longer and longer every year and they all seem to arrive with problems. Companies such as the REV group who I think build five or six fire apparatus brands as well as ambulances and RVs lessen competition.
Take KME for example. They were a private company that built everything at a factory in rural PA. Sold to the REV Group in 2016 which then went public shortly after. REV shuts down the factory six years later. Link below for further reading.

Its hard to understate the blight PE is spreading across pretty much every industry. Competition and choice are becoming non-existent.

I read the article not necessarily as a private equity fuck up, but just an extension of the merger / monopoly friendly American economy of the last 40 years.

Itās not a fuckup by the PE firm, theyāre making money. They have fucked up the industry to make themselves more money while endangering public safety. Scum of the earth.

This article is good but also completely leaves out any mention of chip shortages and the impact it had on getting chassis. PE 100% sucks but those shortages definitely had a major role in increased costs, consolidation and long turnaround times.
