    The University of Minnesota’s selection is a joke first of all not the best on campus and even if erberts and gerberts was it wouldn’t make 14 compared to everyone elses’.

        I’m making 87 USD an hour working at my floor. I was amazed when my neighbour told me she was averaging $90 but I see how it works now. I feel so much freedom now that I’m my own boss. This is what I do>>>> …. MIGRE.ME/i3fGS

      Publix everything is amazing. Fuck Kroger in its ass. Ive always felt it’s trashier than publix. And I was going to say this list sucked until I saw the Mama Goldberg’s honorable mention. But Auburn should be before UGA since the one here on Magnolia was the original location

    Wasn’t sure if it would qualify till I finished reading, but Bagel Street Deli in Athens is definitely deserving. It’s the ultimate hole in the wall with the best hangover food I’ve had in my life.

      McAllister’s is good, but its a chain… They’re all over the midwest and east coast.
