Since its about a 2 1/2 to 3 hour drive, about twice a month.

Define alive. Milk has several bacteria's that are alive. I could honestly care less, but for the sake of arguments.....

No but the person drinking it is.

I was referring more to the dangers of consuming spoiled perishables and the overall lack of responsibility that the grocery store has if someone consumes it because of poor storage conditions.

Right, but if the grocery store re-labels an expiration date on expired food, who's in the wrong?

I for one, am glad that place interviewed me (as well as other new customers I saw come in while I was there) because a place that will sell someone 6 tangs for their 40 gallon should be shut down.

I probably go once every other week. Just drove 400 miles to my friends house for the weekend. Ended up in his LFS and bought these to bring back home with me.... ya never know when something will peek your interest.

I usually go weekly or so and almost always end up with something. My really local shop is way on the high end as far as pricing goes so I'll only pick something up there if it's a mist have. Otherwise I'll drive about an hour to go to a much better place and get a few frags or something on a weekend.
