I put my thumb up my bum and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth.


For the past month I've been spending time with my elderly parents and immersing myself in the world of the Florida Retirement Community. My mother, being an older woman, enjoys every variety of diet colas and when needs must, will purchase the store brands. Publix, one of the local grocery establishments, makes a fine diet cola, however, I recently read the label out of sheer boredom. What I found has perplexed me greatly.

I can vaguely kind of see how associating your product with a clandestine gay affair might be a cutting-edge marketing technique, but associating your product designed for consumption with literal poison is . . . well, a death cult is one theory. or maybe they just replaced their marketing department with talk to transformer.

Yes, I certainly found out odd that in the year 2020 that this diet cola was still in the closet, but that, of course, is the cola's business. But the words LEADED and NOTHING TO LOSE are intensely worrying.

That "nothing to lose" is between "sparkle" and "bubbly" makes it read like a cry for help at the cup factory.

I eat a roast beef sandwich from publix almost every single day of my life. I hope they are also unleaded.

Publix chicken tenders and fried chicken generally are A+ but I don’t like their produce but there is one 1500’ from my house so I make do.

Honestly if they throw a little lead in stuff every now and then for flavor I could forgive them

They do this real danged good Cake with Really light white icing And fruit and jam in the middle which maybe is called a chantilly cake and wow it is good it has some berries in it so it’s basically healthy.

If they were using white lead to make their icing white, honestly I could forgive them.

It’s hard to find premade deviled eggs too but Publix has them! They are not the best deviled eggs I ever ate, but they are pretty decent (who ever heard of a bad deviled egg!?!!) and honestly if they had a little lead in them I could forgive them.

Their Publix brand Caesar croutons are also really good and just take a salad to that next level and so convenient! Sometimes I just eat the croutons as a snack like chips or crackers. Nice and crunchy with just the right amount of garlick and honestly if they put a little lead in them I could forgive them.

I have to say I am also a big fan of the deli counter and bakery at Publix. Good boars head meats and they Have this really good bread called mountain bread or something baked fresh in the store and pre-sliced and dang it is so good. I wouldn’t be surprised if it has a little lead in it, but even if it did I could forgive them!

The only other thing I would say about Publix is that the employees are all sooooo friendly and nice! Always happy to look for something in the back for you or order something or break down a big package! It’s probably from all the lead they feed them, but honestly I can forgive them-the results are sure worth it!
