    I am thinking it is the same stuff that goes on #### on a Shingle but without the green peas.

    Fuel discount has gone down to $0.935 cents a gallon in the most awesomest state.

    Still the most awesomest. Scored an epic burrito too.

    The OM is pleased.

    Thanks for that, Needed another perspective.

    As far as new entrants to the production and distribution stream. I have seen a few new names on DEF delivery trucks around here that are running totes or smaller tank trucks. My bet would be delivering to private yards that have fueling stations. I envision they would be the potential suppliers to the local owned gas stations that will need to supply the newer pickup trucks and equipment that require DEF. The stores are carrying the bottled DEF but will most likely need to transition to the more convenient bulk/pump in the near future. Just looked up DEF at Walmart, they have 2 1/2 gallon jugs for $8.25, more recognizable brands are still almost double that. The more recognized brand being Peak who does antifreeze and windshield washer fluid.

    A side note on that. I did a drop and pick at a place that filled retail bottles for Peak and others. Delivered concentrated windshield washer fluid in totes and hauled steel barrels of consumer ready washer fluid to a lube oil distribution place. I asked the lube oil distributor, they sold the washer fluid to local maintenance and repair shops.

    I grew up with hamburger gravy being crumbled hamburger fried up. Then add some gravy, cooks choice, either made from the grease in the pan or from a can/jar (can of Cream of mushroom soup is a viable substitute). Bowl of mashed taters and scoop or 2 of gravy makes a great comfort food meal.
