BEER CHEESE
- Also called Pub Cheese

- Alright if you're in a specialty beer cheese type place
- Vinnie is not anti-dairy like some Carnivore folk
ENERGY DRINKS

- Rockstars and Redbulls and the like are full of crap
- Way too sweet and horrible for you
- Sugar free does not make a difference
- Makes Vinnie feel agitated
- If you want some energy, eat better or drink coffee
